Day 611 of 365 More. I actually hate not shaving. That might surprise some of you since you can tell I often don’t. There’s actually a reason for that. When I first started wrestling, I decided I’d look more like a bad guy if I wasn’t clean shaven. It takes me three days or so…
Day 606 of 365 More. So today I paid the federal government about $400 for the honor of having essentially been unemployed for the majority of 2007. And people wonder why I hate both political parties of this country. The really funny thing is, I’m getting the government kickback of $600 this year just like…
Day 596 of 365 More. Beer, the only carbs I need. So today was the day. After 5 weeks of processing, Steph and I invited friends over to try a nice refreshing batch of "Lonzo Maverick’s Good Ol’ Fashioned Canadian Maple Lager." Just like Grampa used to make. Unfortunately, as far as I know, my…
Day 591 of 365 More. So Steph and I have two cats. But you’d never know it. Tess, has appeared in a few 365 shots with me. However, in the first 590 days I did this project, her brother Otto never appeared once. When I was trying to come up with a shot for tonight,…
Day 586 of 365 More. The comic is well underway. I’m more than a third done with the finished artwork. Max is more than halfway through the pencil work. It’s going well. The problem is that I’m staying up so late doing it every night that I’m starting lose track of what’s real and what’s…
Day 584 of 365 More. Finished the first chapter (8 pages) of the comic tonight. Now 2 chapters (16 pages) to go. It’s a lot of work but I’ll get there. That said, the late nights and long hours are starting to get to me. I just feel tired. And I know what you’ll all…
Day 583 of 365 More. I said my self-portraits would be suffering for the near future, and I wasn’t kidding. I spent the entire day glued to my laptop. I was up til 7am last night working on the comic, and started again as soon as I woke up. I took a couple breaks. One…
Day 579 of 365 More. I am oh so very tired… Apparently I misset my alarm clock or something somehow and overslept by more than an hour, which meant I had to haul ass to make my meeting on time. I think my boss is a little pissed at me for that, but luckily the…
Day 567 of 365 More. Time for some R&R. I spent the entire week working overtime in order to get my project done to demo on friday. I woke up early Friday morning with a really bad stomach ache, but it didn’t really matter because I had to go present to the client one way…
Day 564 of 365 More. There just aren’t enough hours in the day. Not even close. I did get a lot done at work today, but when i came home I spent the entire evening editing photos and researching my next photo project (which I actually have a really great idea for, and hopefully one…
Day 561 of 365 More. I’ve wanted to learn to brew my own beer for a long time. I don’t know why. I’m perfectly capable of picking up a case at the distributor. But something about the process just always seemed cool. My mother bought me a kit for Christmas, but I never got around…
Day 560 of 365 More. We hadn’t played Rockband in a while, so Steph and I decided to invite our neighbors over to play. We got a lot farther in the game than we had previously, including finally opening up Blue Oyster Cult’s Don’t Fear the Reaper. Any game is automatically made better with the…
Day 556 of 365 More. It’s cold. Bitterly cold. I’ve kind had enough of it. There were rumors that it was going to be warmer this week. It now appears that was a filthy lie. Got up early today to get to work and run a client meeting. It’s funny. I’m not a morning person.…
Last week I did a photoshoot with Mandy. She’s got a wonderful look. She just exudes the sweet and charming girl next door vibe. Definitely totally hot, but also completely sweet and unthreatening. So I definitely didn’t want to ruin that when shooting implied nudes of her.
So that was the challenge, feature her sexiness and sensuality but without making her look slutty or blatant. I’m totally pleased with what we came up with.
That should about do it for this set. I still have her tarot card left, but that’s going to take me some more work.
Got to work with a new model on Sunday. And I couldn’t be happier. I think Mandie and I had great chemistry together, and I can’t wait to work with her again.
More to come.
