Just now saw myself on @MackCollier’s blog about live #Blogchat

I just got more cowbell in my life! (Big News)

Some of you may have heard, but consider this my official announcement. I am now the Digital Strategist for Snoball!

My second week into #MovemberATX 2011

Today is the start of week two of Movember. That means it is time for another shave. Here is a updated picture of the Mo:

As you can see, my stache is starting to fill in. Now you see how I am doing on the hair side, let’s take a look at how much money I have raised. Right now I have $54 in my bank, and before you point out that the total is exactly the same as last week, I would say you’re right. I have not gotten one $1 in donations in over a week. I must be doing something wrong. If you are reading this right now, please just give me a dollar. One dollar is all I ask. Please and thank you.

One week into #MovemberATX 2011

And here is a picture of the after:

You can see my baby stache if you look really, really, close. It’s hard for me to grow hair and I look ridiculous when I try. This is all for a good cause. Speaking of donations* I would like to take the ime to thank those who have contributed to the cause of men’s health.

• Ashlynn Kemp
• Liz Bradford
• Heather Strout

I think that it’s funny that all my donations are from women. I think it is out of pure pity. Please make a donation of any amount. Right now I have $54 in my bank and would love to double it before the end of the week.

This is my third year being on Team Austin, and every year they do an awesome job. I hope that this year I am able to do my small part to help the cause. If you are in Austin, there are a ton of events scheduled. Check out the Facebook page and the Twitter account to stay current on all the happenings. You can also track other members of the team by the hash tag #MovemberATX.

Once again, I would love your help. Please donate what you can and check out my progress at: http://mobro.co/wesley83

*I know I wasn’t even talking about donations earlier, but I couldn’t think of a good transition.

The time has come! #MovemberATX 2011 day 1.

Today is the first day of Movember. If you haven’t heard of Movember, it is obviously a combination of the word Mo, which is short for mustache, and November. The goal is to raise awareness and funds for male health issues, such as prostate and testicular cancer.

How is this done you may ask? Well in my case, I scare you a little by shaving my face bald. No more goatee, no more beard. I will be slowly growing a mustache for the whole month and will be asking for your support. Please make a donation of any amount. Right now I have $1 in my bank and would love to double it before the end of the day.

Here is my before pic. I took it at 5am in my bathroom this morning. I hope that explains the sleepy/pissed look I am giving off.

I was up that early to catch a flight. Lucky me, I was invited to some secret Ford event in Dearborn, Michigan. So super secret that at right now as I sit in my hotel room I have no idea what the agenda is. Now that you have seen the before, brace yourself for the after.

I got an email saying that there was a notice for me. In said notice I saw this chart placed at the bottom. I see that there are things that Discover will share to others about me. I also see that there is a small number of items I can opt out of by calling the number 1-800-225-5202. I just called that number and it get some robot asking me what number I want to dial, wtf?

I am already on Discover’s website, why can I not just uncheck a box? They really want to make it hard for people to opt-out of sharing valuable personal information.
