82. I hate the hairs that grow on the nose itself, most.

Nov 2013

Facial hair is a curse, if you ask me, that only gets worse with age. The hair grows higher on the cheeks and lower on the neck, and as several have pointed out, begins to grow out of the ears. And, in my case, the eyesight has grown dimmer, so it is harder for me to determine if I have really cleaned the hair off, before leaving the house.
I hate discovering half way through the day that I missed a patch of hair somewhere. Its like having food in your teeth, that you only discover after a rousing conversation with someone you'd hoped to impress.
