Beard growth

I finally stopped being a girl and decided to take up attempting to grow a beard as a hobby. I mean, a side hobby to all of the other 2348762345 things I like to do and do well. Anyhow, here are some recent pictures to document the 2-3 week period since I last shaved, as well as one picture at the river where I look bewildered and BJ looks like a homeless war vet:










I can honestly understand now the connection between mena dn their facial hair. At this point, I don't want to shave mine off. I hated it for the first 2 weeks or so, but now its almost like a little animal. I just wanna take care of it, you know? I'm become emotionally attached to it.
