Day 1008 of 365 Again. This is a ƒ/1.8 50mm fixed lens. It’s actually the third one I’ve owned. I’ve been thinking about investing in a better one (the ƒ/1.4 or even the ƒ/1.2), but honestly, given that I keep breaking them, it’s probably best that I stick with the cheap one. In other photography…

Day 1007 of 365 Again. There’s this guy who promotes his anti-identity theft company by posting his social security number on the web and announcing it in his commercials. It’s proof that he’s secure that his identity can’t be stolen. I have no such belief. In my case, it’s more that I’m just not sure…

Day 1006 of 365 Again. The plan was to go to bed early tonight. I finished the comic (which I think is pretty funny and you should check it out) and I figured, "ok, rather than editing photos tonight or starting the next comic, I’m just going to get a good night’s sleep for once.…

Day 1005 of 365 Again. So very tired… this working around th eclock lately is starting to take it’s toll. Trying to get some of the comic strip done tonight and I’m falling asleep while I work. I think I may just have to call it night. And what do I do when I have…

Day 1004 of 365 Again. They’re coming to take me away, Ha Ha They’re coming to take me away! So this was originally my plan for my Day 1000 shot, but a couple problems happened. First of all, the straitjacket I ordered didn’t get here in time. On top of that, I didn’t really have…

Day 1003 of 365 Again. The problem with spending Saturday night getting wasted is that it means I have to work twice as hard on Sunday to get the Cosmic Hellcats done, and working so much was why I needed a break in the first place. Still, I got it done. And I’m happy with…

Day 1002 of 365 Again. I really needed a party. I’ve been working my ass off lately with shoots, the comic and my actual job. I really needed to kick back and get drunk. Tonight was the night for that. Unfortunately a lot of my friends didn’t agree, so I had about the least packed…

Day 1001 of 365 Again. I was at the mall and I happened to stop in Hot Topic just to see if there were any cool belts or anything I wanted. There wasn’t. Just as I was leaving, the girl behind the counter rushed up to me and was like "wait, did you see this?…

Day 1000 of 365 Again. 1000 Days! Unbelievable. I had actually intended to do a big shot about it being the 1000th day today, but I didn’t have time because right after work I drove out to the ‘burbs to do a shoot. My fourth (and final) of the week. It was a great time.…

Day 997 of 365 Again. And so my hell week begins. One shoot down, three to go, and I have to find some time to do my comic strip in between. And Thursday is Day 1000 and it would be really nice to do something explore worthy, but I haven’t hit explore in months. I…

Day 996 of 365 Again. It’s always nice to take a break under a tree. My life has been moving one million miles per hour lately. I go to work all day during the weekdays and spend all night and the entire weekend working on the comic and photography. At one point I was behind…

Day 995 of 365 Again. When I was a kid I wanted to make comics. You’d think that’d mean that Cosmic Hellcats is a dream come true, and you’d be half right. Up until now, I’ve been writing Hellcats and coloring it. Max has been doing the drawing. A few weeks ago, he decided that…

Day 994 of 365 Again. I’ve been wrestling Friday shows the last several months. This means I have to get off work, rush to pick up Steph (and this time Jameel, since he decided to come with us) anf fight rush-hour traffic to get into West Virginia before bell time. That said, it was worth…

Day 993 of 365 Again. So this is absolutely perfect. I got a bluetooth barcode scanner. It’s something I’ve wanted for quite a while, really. Why would I ever need such a thing? Well, I have this program that keeps track of all my books, movies, and music. I can look things up and enter…
