I suppose I did leave you hanging as to the outcome of my Pre-No-Shave-November eyebrow removal fantasy. |
Yes, I still have my eyebrows.
Yes, our living room still has wood paneling.
I'm rather glad I kept the brows, and not just because they're so attractive.
We wound up striking a deal with the competing apartment.
After threatening to give all our pumpkins to our next-door-neighbors just to make the guys lose, they offered us a collaborative win: combination of pumpkins and shared glory.
We even shook on it.
Then they went all Benedict Arnold on us.
They took the pumpkins, the glory, the J-Dawg prize, and proceeded to give a lovely speech about appreciating the opportunity to destroy everyone, and also the opportunity to make new friends for the sole purpose of stabbing said new friends in the back.
I don't think shaving eyebrows or head could have prevented this backstabbage.
It was a tragedy.
