Day 121 of 365 days. Back to basics. I haven’t done a good sitting in shadows picture in a couple weeks, so I decided it was about time. Actually I decided yesterday, but I didn’t have the time to devote to it til today. It started out being a pretty good day, actually. Slept in,…
Day 120 of 365 days. Had a wrestling show today at IWC, my "home company." I had previously shown a shot of my stable in BDW (the other company I work for), Afirmative Action. Well pictured here is my new stable in IWC, Sexual Harassment. Tonight, being the dastardly heel that I am, I turned…
Day 119 of 365 days. Today after work, Steph and I went to a going away party for a couple we know. It was an evening of fun where we discussed politics and books and college and football and tv shows. Had a great time with old friends and some that I didn’t even know.…
Day 118 of 365 days. (Stephen and Jack, this is another one you might enjoy) One might be able to gather from several other pictures in this project that I am a comic book fan. Even if I weren’t a comic book fan, I would hope that I would still have had the foresight in…
Day 117 of 365 days. So one of the about a billion things that has had me stressed and tired out lately has been reading. I’ve been reading gender studies books in preparation for a paper I have to write and present at a conference in April. I’m actually pretty excited about the paper. It’ll…
Day 116 of 365 days. So a little backstory. For the last few years, I’ve had this thing where I refuse to vote for any unopposed candidate, instead voting for myself. I urge others to do the same. A few months back, Pittsburgh’s mayor died and he was succeeded by the President of City Council,…
Day 115 of 365 days. I’ve said it before many times, and I’ll say it again. I’m just not cut out for this whole working for a living thing. Sometimes at the end of the day I’m just completely worn out. I was so tired in fact that I couldn’t even be bothered to take…
Day 114 of 365 days. Yesterday, I was "called out." In a nice and friendly way, sure. But make no mistake about it, Jack Scoresby and Stephen Poff laid a punk card down right in front of me. Jack and Stephen are fellow photographers, who also both happen to be doing this crazy 365 Days…
Day 113 of 365 days. Two days in a row with two backup pictures. Had a very busy day. Spent the morning painting the attic with Steph and then this evening went to Jill’s birthday dinner. I actually did take some pictures there but mostly other people. Actually took this one at her place while…
Day 112 of 365 days. There were many opportunities for a kick ass picture today. There was a torrential downpour this morning. A massive windstorm this afternoon and I went to a flickr event this evening. And yet none of the photos I took compared to this. And so here’s what we have. What I…
Day 111 of 365 days. So far, I had more or less gone out of my way to not really repeat ideas for the entire year. But I got to thinking last night that really, the vast majority of my self-portraits (and everyone else in the world’s portraits for that matter) amount to "here’s a…
Day 110 of 365 days. Today, I am 30% of the way through this project. In some ways it feels like I just started and in other ways it feels like I’ve always been doing this. Wanted to play with something different today, so I opted to see what I could do with my new…
Day 109 of 365 days. It’s been a while since Steph co-starred in a self portrait with me. I had this idea tonight. We had earlier done a picture of our hands together back on day 60, so why not do one of our feet? A fitting tribute to date night, I think. If I…
Day 108 of 365 days. The superlong weekend is over and its back to business as usual. I have entered what can only be considered the lameduck phase at work. I only have about one month left on my contract and then its back to the unemployment line. The unemployment doesn’t really scare me. If…
Day 107 of 365 days. I’ve been doing a lot of day in the life shots lately. In fact, in the last few days I’ve done two shots of me eating. I actually considered doing a shot of me installing Steph’s new car stereo. I took one shot, didn’t like it, and decided that I…
