Well that was fun. Seeing a reflection of myself I realised I was long-overdue a beard trim and seeing as I had a client popping for a meeting in 15 minutes, I thought I'd give myself a quick once-over with an electric trimmer.
All was going well, and then did a bit under my jaw and as I did so heard a strange plastic-sounding noise at my feet.
The length-dictating widget had fallen off, so I had just made quite a neat, very-closely shaved rectangle right in the middle of my otherwise not very-closely shaved beard.
Fuck.
I then spend the next 10 minutes trying desperately to work out how to compensate for this, back and forthing until I now look like a 90s or Amish interperetation of d'Artagnan.
I hear a knock at the door, throw myself across the room and open it, and then have an awkward meeting where I'm pretty damn sure he's just staring at my red-raw weirdie beardie.
*sigh*
