Day 106 of 365 days. The worst part of the holiday season is the packing on of pounds. It starts with Thanksgiving dinner, moves through Christmas dinner and all the way to the drunken debauchery of New Years. Even on the non-important days like today, I end up doing silly stuff like going out shopping…

Day 105 of 365 days. Believe it or not, this is not a computer generated image. It is in fact a self portrait of me. I was looking for something different to do and then I started thinking about the picture from Stephen Poff that got me started in the 365 days journey in the…

Day 104 of 365 days. Thanksgiving day. Spent it with Steph’s family. I think I may be 20 pounds heavier, but what the hell, thanksgiving only comes once a year. I really want to go to the door buster sales tomorrow, but I can’t convince Steph to go with me. Some people have no Christmas…

Day 103 of 365 days. One of my most favorite things in the whole wide world is my family’s rice pudding. I’ve loved it since I was a toddler. Imagine how surprised I was when I found out that when other people make rice pudding its actually, well, a pudding. My family makes a casserole…

Day 102 of 365 days. Sometimes during this project one of those days comes along where I just really want to show a mundane part of my life. This is about as mundane as it gets. I got a call from a customer service telemarketer type. You know the ones, "Hello Mr. Maverick, we’d like…

Day 101 of 365 days. After yesterday’s masterpiece, it’s back to business as usual. Spent this evening editing a video promo package for a friend who is going to be wrestling in Hawaii. I’ve done it a couple times before. It’s kind of cool to know that I produced video packages that aired on Hawaiian…

Day 100 of 365 days. One hundred days. Never would have thought I’d make it that far. Wanted to do something special that might stand out a bit in order to commemerate it. I hope this fits the bill. I noticed that I hadn’t been doing as much photoshop gimmickery lately, and part of me…

Day 99 of 365 days. Tonight Steph and I went to a game night at a friend’s house. We hung out and talked and played cards and board games and I took a picture. I wanted to get a picture of me playing a game but none of them really came out the way I…

Day 98 of 365 days. Another one of those days where I decided I might try something new and different. Another one of those new and different ideas that didn’t turn out quite how I wanted but is at least somewhat interesting. I think it may even be better than the original idea. So this…

Day 96 of 365 days. Ever since I started letting my hair really grow out I developed kind of a nervous tick. Whenver I’m bored or stressed and can’t get to a cigarette, or I’m trying to not smoke them, I tend to braid my own hair. Lately I’ve noticed that the braids are even…

Day 95 of 365 days. One of the most fun things about being a pro-wrestler isn’t exactly obvious. Every year, around this time, a new version of the video game "Smackdown vs. Raw" comes out. Its a wrestling game. And it has the best feature of any video game in the world. You can design…

Day 94 of 365 days. This is something I had been meaning to try for a while. Kind of the opposite of something I had been doing for a while. Pi c’s had recommended it when she saw some of my pictures where I faded into the black background. This is my attempt to fade…

Day 93 of 365 days. Today was another of those days where I didn’t actually have an idea I was looking forward to. I kind of put taking a picture off for a while and then just went down in the basement and played around for a bit. Then I came up with this idea…

Day 92 of 365 days. Ever have one of those days where you feel trapped in your own life? I’m having one of those lives. Not that today was particularly bad. In fact, it was quite ok, got a lot of work done. Finished the long neglected plastering of my attic. Hung out with Steph…
