I've Just Seen a Face

I just looked into the mirror as I ponder if I should shave now or later; the question is more do I have time now or later (probably later).
But I noticed two things in the reflection: first, damn, do I look more and more like my mother facially (this is not an age/looking older comment, but feature wise), and second, will I look worse with the about week's worth of stubble or shaved and showing the bags under my eyes?
Which should I subject the public to at this stage? Hmm.
