My dear readers, I need both of your opinions urgently.

I have made the St Andrew’s College swimming team. (Ok, I’ll wait while you get back on your seats. I’m not thaaat unathletic, ok?)

The meet is on Wednesday. I have moderately-to-very-hairy legs, and its quite possible that shaving them tomorrow will make me that much more speedy. At the very least, I’ll look like a swimmer (ie, emasculated).

But I’m scared. Firstly, and most importantly, I expect it to be itchy. Secondly, my girlfriend has expressed some displeasure at the thought. Longer term, I’m not looking forward to the prickly regrowth.

So, to shave or not to shave, that is the question. And the answer is in your hands. Whichever has more ‘votes’ by 9pm tomorrow night will be done. SMS your vote… just kidding, leave a comment.

mood: anxious

UPDATE: I’ve decided that I need a minimum of 10 shave votes before I do. You may need to spread the word.

UPDATE 2.0: This article is hilarious! I relate.

UPDATE MACH 3: Well, thats 10 votes already! Wow! Who would have thought that Rhys knew so many metrosexuals (or just sickos :P … only kidding… sort of). One vote against (THANKS MATT!)… now the fight is on to save the hair!
Come on blokes? Are you going to let them emasculate me? Defend the weak!

UPDATE the 4th: the campaign is on! Save the Shave!

UPDATE V: Shave. And pictures.
