Memoirs of a Mustache

Oh how accustomed I have become, to people looking at me like I'm scum.
The adventures and the stories will never be forgotten, that upper lip warmer cannot be boughten.
It is true the month is nearly passed, the misplaced eyebrow I've worn each day, will meet its last.
Tears will be shed for the little muzzy, that dot and dash we all love to see.
The soup strainer's days are numbered and few, and the massacre of the upper lip plumage shall be true.
But oh... the wondrous life that mouser has had, the people that face fungus has made so darn mad.
The changes on the world that old lip tickler has created. Alas this stache will soon be cremated!
In our hearts the nose neighbor will live on, whether fu manchu, walrus or as the chevron.
All enemies the lip patch does somehow thwart, and why can't each man a face hog sport?
So clean your clothes and give em some starch, and be ready to plant some lip spinach next March!
Although the flavor saver will end on this day, you have not seen the last of my tash I say!
"Long live the cookie duster" said with a sigh, next year we'll bring back the Magnum PI
So now its the end of this face furniture freestyle, with love and respect to that hairy lip pile.

Test drama!

A few weeks ago I had scheduled my practical test for my esthetician license. I scheduled it for a Wednesday at 5 at night (so I thought) so I could take it after work that day! The night before AJ and I went over everything, to make sure I had all the little steps down, til about 12:30. I was so excited and nervous as I went over to the test center. As I pull up I noticed there are absolutely no cars in the parking lot. So of course I start to panic a little bit. I walked to the front and tried the door just to find it was locked! I was really early so I told myself they just haven't opened the center up yet. Starting to feel my anxiety bubbling up I hurry and pull out my phone to look up there website!  After searching frantically for a number I could call with no success I logged in to look and see all the specifics of the test (date, time, place). I pulled up my schedule and find the test just to see it says I was absent! I look over at the date and the test was on Tuesday!!!!!! I thought I had scheduled it for Wednesday from the beginning! As I realize what has happened I start to cry and freak out in a mini panic attack. I was sure they wouldn't let me make it up for a month and I would have to pay another 90 dollars ( because that is what they make you do if you fail). I called AJ pretty much hysterical and explain what happened. Of course AJ being the amazing man that he is talks to me, calms me down and explains that everything will be alright we just need to deal with it! So I go back to our apartment and start deep cleaning.Trying to get my mind off of things until tommorow when I can call the headquarters and hopefully talk them into letting me take it sooner. Later that night my friend from school texts me to ask how I did! Embarrassed out of my mind I tell her the whole story and how I now have to wait a month! She then precedes  to tell me she missed her first test cause of traffic. She explains that I will have to pay another 90 dollars but I can take the test as soon as possible! It still stinks that I have to pay the money but at least I can take the test next week! AJ being the positive bug he is told me it was a good thing cause now I have even more time to prepare! So I better pass with this extra time I gave myself! I am so grateful Heavenly father blessed me with such an amazing husband that knows just what to say and just how to make me feel better!  So anyways everyone better wish me luck for next week! I hope I can get the date right this time!
