Lately I've been letting what hair I have grow out cause once when I cut myself badly while shaving my head and had to let my hair go without mowing it, Aaron told me he thought I looked good. For some reason his opinion mattered to me and I again have let it all hang out. Last night I decided to shave my beard and afterwards I noticed I had neglected trimming my nose hair. I couldn't believe how long they had gotten without me getting them caught in my food or something. I dug through the medicine cabinet and found my Panasonic nose trimmer. I love the idea that Panasonic also make nose trimmers. I could understand maybe Black and Decker, but Panasonic?

I hadn't used it in a while so when I turned it on the battery was kind of slow. I looked for another AAA battery but couldn't find one. I went back to the nose trimmer and gave it a shake as to possible wake it up or something, like the electrons had been napping. To my amazement it kicked off with power so I jammed it up my nose, but I guess the little blades inside the trimmer had oxidated and were no longer sharp, so all it did was wrap all my nose hairs up into the machine which grinded to a halt like a propeller caught in a fishing net. When I came too, and got up off the floor, I had to make a decision... Do I try and get the tweezers and surgically pull the hairs from the machine or just rip it loose?

Well, there just wasn't enough room up there for fiddlin' around so I just yanked reeeeaaalll Hard! Again I nearly passed out, but this time the trimmer came apart with the blade mechanism still lodged in my nasal cavity. This time I had to get the pliers out of my toolbox and get a grip on the tiny blades because they were way up there near my delicate brain. I pulled slowly this time and could feel each wire-like hair being pulled from its roots like the trees in Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. This ordeal and my telling of this story seems just as long as that movie too.

I now have one clean and smooth as a babies nostril and one like a sascuatch waiting to be trimmed.
