Day 256 of 365 days. The Mav/Jack Crossover (Chris Maverick Variant) Today is new comic day. A day when geeks all over the country flock to comic specialty shops to pick up their favorite funny books. Little known to all non comic book readers, due to a particular leak in the subspace nexus to the…

shooting the moon

shooting the moon

doing a tarot shoot on thursday and again on friday. On Friday, I intend to shoot the Moon card. I was sure that I had some pics I’d shot of a full moon on my hard drive, but I don’t. Also, after thinking about it, I kind of didn’t really want a full moon for the card anyway. Tonight’s moon was nicely just over half full. So I decided to go out and try to get some good shots of it. This is the one that I think I will be using for the card.

Day 256 of 365 days. Part of me wonders if I am starting to lose my mind without having a day job. I was at every end of the multidimensional extreme today. I had about an hour of misery and uselessness as I fell into despair thinking I’m never going to find anything to pay…

Day 255 of 365 days. Most people hate the winter, I’m now missing it. Today was the first day this spring that I had to mow the lawn. The last couple years, I haven’t had to mow my own lawn because I used to pay the guy who lived across the street (a professional gardner/landscaper)…

Spent the day with my friend Cheryl who is visiting from Seattle. Obviously no one can visit me without doing a photoshoot. So this is the first of the shots that I have processed of her. More to come when we’re done hanging out.

Back before I was a bum (errr… starving artist), I used to be a pretty decent user interface (UI) designer. Cheryl was my intern. Over the years she’s become a really good friend. These days, Cheryl lives in Seattle where she designs video games for Nintendo Gameboys (right now she’s doing Shrek 3 and Pirates of the Caribbean 3). She’s also one of the voices in the game the crazy successful Sims video games (she’s a little easier to understand in real life). So whenever you play a video game, keep in mind that it might not exist were it not for my supremely excellent mentoring skills.

Day 253 of 365 days. So in the middle of the day, Steph walks up to me and says that since its a nice day we should go out and see the buffalos. I counter with the obvious. Yes, it is a nice day, but we live in Pittsburgh, there are no buffalos. She assured…
