What's all this then?

Referring back to this, I've 95% made up my mind to shave off the goatee.

Additionally, I am also seriously debating with myself whether or not to do something I've thought about for a long time: going totally bald by having a barber shave off what's left of my top-of-the-head hair (or at least doing so on a test basis). The alternative would be getting #1 buzz cuts more often than I currently do.

If I do make up my mind to go totally bald, I think I'll hold off on it until I have a vacation of a week or longer later in the year, so that I could have at least a few days of letting the hair grow out again before going back to work if I decide I don't like the look. I'm actually on such a vacation right now, but hadn't got this far along in my thinking at the start of this week.
