This was my first official year with the crew at Moustache May.com These guys are nothing short of amazing. Super creative it had me laughing for hours through the month. What really struck me funny was how much effort daily put into these incredible pictures.

Last year I joined the moustached crew late into the month and the effects that my stache had on social situations were pretty funny. So when this year came around I didn’t think it would be that big a deal.. but I was wrong.

Here’s some excerpts from my journal to give you more of a inside look at the process of the month

Day 4 – Face feels dirty. Do I really want to do this?

Day 16 – It seems that in every social situation I feel the need to apologize for my stache. Every event I’ve been to in the last 2 weeks didn’t feature a stache attached to anyone younger than 45.

Day 19 – I got asked out today, (by a woman) could the stache have magical properties? Am I channeling Tom Selleck?

Day 23 – Can’t have a conversation without mentioning my mustache. It’s influencing my behavior. When I see other guys with mustaches there’s instant camaraderie and usually the head nod greeting. What’s with that?

These gentlemen banded together to show America that they weren’t afraid of the old caterpillar lip. Thanks guys for a great month and I’ll see you next year. Or.. do I go for no shave November (Go Whiskerino!)

But for now… we’re back to “normal”
