Day 166 of 365 days. A really long day with not a lot of time to do a lot of anything. I didn’t even get to work out. I’m going to have to make that up tomorrow. Anyway, after a long day where I didn’t even remember to eat dinner (going to go fix that…

Day 165 of 365 days. For Christmas, I got Steph an easel and a bunch of art products because she wanted to be more creative. She’s even been doing her own 365 Day project as of a couple days ago (using the camera I bought her for our anniversary). But one of the things she…

Day 164 of 365 days. Sometimes I like my backup ideas better than the initial plans. A couple days ago, a company that sales water purifiers called me and asked if I’d allow them to come to our house and test our water and give us a sales pitch. In return, they’d give us a…

Day 163 of 365 days. Ok, this will probably be the geekiest thing I ever do in this 365 day project. I spent a lot of time playing video games yesterday, and I started thinking "I haven’t done a big massive photoshoppy picture in a while. I’ll have to do one soon." Then I went…

Day 162 of 365 days. Kind of a lazy day today. My headache never entirely faded so I mostly laid on the couch and played video games all day, taking an exciting break to play trivial pursuit with Steph and have dinner. We were actually planning on going out to a friends place, but then…

Day 161 of 365 days. Wow. I never noticed how much darker my face was than my hands before. I wonder if that’s normal. I had a wrestling show tonight. Unlike my last show, which was 4 hours away, this one is only 30 minutes away. The problem was that I just didn’t feel like…

Day 160 of 365 days. Last week I joined a flickr community created by fellow 365er, daverexwood. Dave is taking a photography class and has challenged others to do his weekly assignments with him. I thought it’d be a fine set of exercises to work on improving my photography. There were four assignments for the…

Day 159 of 365 days. My unemployment day has worked into a pretty good routine. I get up late, play around with flickr and my photography (today, editting my friend Nicki’s photoshoot), then I talk to people online, eat lunch and get in my daily workout. My flickr friend, the lovely and talented Jessi has…

Day 158 of 365 days. As I’ve said before, I never really considered how big this whole 365 Days thing would get when I started it. At this very moment there are 2,562 members in a group that I never honestly thought would have 30. I have no way of checking for sure, but by…

Day 157 of 365 days. I did another photoshoot today. This time with my friend Nicki. I guess I could have done the same thing I did with Vanessa and Lisa and photographed myself photographing them, but I actually thought it might be nice to show "where the magic happens" for once. So this is…

Day 156 of 365 days. Ever since I started this project, I’ve been wondering how I was going to get a good picture of myself in a wrestling ring. I never really thought I could get a truly excellent shot, but wrestling is a big enough part of my life that I wanted to get…

Day 155 of 365 days. People keep saying they want to see more of my exciting life as a pro-wrestler. The problem is that most of it isn’t really all that exciting. And of the part that is really exciting, I haven’t found a way to take a great self-portrait while doing it yet. So…

Day 154 of 365 days. Weird thing about the way we treat ourselves. I’ve been trying really hard to whip myself into shape. If I made a New Year’s resolution that’s probably it. I’ve been working out every day, trying to dump about 13 pounds (I’m down 8 since Jan. 1). I’ve also sort of…

Day 153 of 365 days. Another day, another job interview. Sometimes I feel like I work harder when I’m not working than I do when I am. It went ok, I guess, but at the end of the day, its just another contract job, and if I get it and take it, I’ll just be…

Day 152 of 365 days. So as I’ve stated, I’ve been dealing with constant job interviews and recruiter calls. I’ve been so distracted with them that I hadn’t even gotten to my traditional FUNemployment (what my friends call unemployment) ritual. Usually, the first official day of my unemployment I spend sitting back, relaxing and having…
