It happened to me in the shower this morning. I shaved and then jumped into the tub, focused on how fast I needed to keep moving if was going to make the 6:51 train. As I washed my face, my hands hit my Movember effort and my immediate thought was, "I missed a spot."
"No, wait. That belongs there," I thought. Well, "belongs" might be a strong word. I don't believe anyone thinks a moustache belongs on my face. But it's Movember, men's health issues need attention and the 'mo has its fans.
Over the weekend, one donor asked if I was doing a time-lapse series of photos. (I'm now considering it.) Another friend read my Patch posting and made a donation. I'm not yet near my goal, but Movember isn't over yet. And regardless of the donations I personally inspire, if I make more men think about touchy yet important topics like testicular exams and prostate checks, I'll consider my Movember a complete success.
So until the 30th of Movember, I'll keep missing that spot.
