Today is November 1st. This means a few things:
- We got an extra hour of sleep yesterday (yay!)
- It’s almost winter (boo!)
- It’s the first day of Movember (woot!)
I hear you ask “what’s Movember?”
Movember is a way to raise awareness of prostate cancer, and raise money for the cause. It’s also an excuse to grow a moustache! Here’s an excerpt from the website:
A Mo Bro starts Movember – the month formerly known as November – clean shaven, and grows a moustache all month long, garnering support from friends and family in the form of donations. What’s more, a Mo Bro is a walking billboard for the cause as his new look opens the door for him to talk about prostate cancer – making the moustache a symbol, much like the pink ribbon is for breast cancer.
Anyways, I’ve donated $50 to the Movember foundation to start the month off, and will donate $5 for each of the remaining days of the month if I shave before the 30th of Movember. If you’d like to donate (and I know you would), just go to my donation page and go for it! I’m also part of the Google Canada Movember team, fondly called Mo’ogle Canada.
Lets get Mo’ving!
