037 - My first beard



Pardon the myspace style self pic. Notice the awkwardness of my trying to take the photo.

I've never had a beard. I've had attempts but always bow out due to excessive itch. I've never groomed it before so I've ended up with a week or so worth of unruly and itchy scraggly face. This marks my first honest to goodness attempt at grooming and growing. I'm told to play through the pain (or in this case, the itch).

I'm excited. 32 years in so I feel this is something I should do once. Also when this is done I can get a few days of a pretty sweet dirt-stache out of it.

why "live in chicago"?
Joan of Arc made a record called "Live in Chicago" and I thought was really good with good artwork and good songs. When I started doing this I had envisioned that it would be focused primarily on my home thus "Live in Chicago" became the title. I've always liked it because I've never known if it was "live" like "I live in Chicago" or "live" like "I saw that band live". I live in Chicago thus it's that "live in Chicago". Hi.
