No-Shave November

It is no longer November which means that yesterday morning, I went from this...

to this.

It was an interesting month. There were definitely some pros and cons to growing a beard for a month.

Pros:
I didn't have to shave.

Cons:
It was itchy for about the first week and a half.
After about 3 weeks, it got long enough where I felt like there was something crawling on my face.
My wife hated it.
As illustrated above, I can't grow a good thick beard.

Obviously, I'm not much of a beard person, but it was kind of fun to do it knowing it would probably be coming off in a few weeks. Did anyone else participate in no-shave November or Movember (mustache)?
