Mustaches

My husband has grown a mustache. I don’t like it. Actually, that’s a pretty big understatement. He looks just like his older brother which I find to be really creepy. So while the actual stache doesn’t look awful, I can’t look him in the face without wanting to laugh at him. Now, I feel the need to explain because he didn’t do this just because he wanted to. The La Crosse fire department is currently involved in their first annual “Stache Bash.” It is an MDA fundraiser so each participant bought in for $20 and was officially clean shaven on September 30th and the contest will be held on October 30th. Of course, the bash will involve tip boards and other fund raising efforts….and maybe some beer. Each “grower” forfeits their entry fee and suffers tremendous ridicule if they cave in and shave it off before the 30th. (They may have to pay another $20 as an extra punishment but I’m not sure.) There are five categories for our celebrity judges to critique and analyze. But I think, more importantly, that the wives that have suffered all month should win all the prizes. It will be a really fun time and I think I’ll bring a razor!
