I shaved the beard off Saturday morning.

I was watching TV when Bryanna came down the stairs and stood at the bottom, staring at me.

I looked at her and told her that I was me, and she said "oh, hi Paul!".

Interesting.

When I got to work this morning, everyone made fun of me. The Z Man said I look drastically different. Well, compared to the bearded Paul, I'm sure I do...but different than before?

They are right. I have gained weight. 8 pounds. And I can see it in my face.

I mean c'mon, man. What's with the cleft in my chin? What am I, Kirk Douglas?
