Day 1254 of 365 4 lyf. Sigh… I hate when I have a good idea that will never be very popular on flickr. Oh well. So pop quiz for the photographers out there, who knows what’s going on here? It’s actually cooler than it probably looks. 365 days

Day 1252 of 365 4 lyf. I’m weird. I barely sleep at all. Like ever. You can probably tell by some of the times that I upload pictures. But I was really exhausted when I got home from work today. Come home, fall asleep on couch, wake up, make a sandwich for dinner, fall back…

Day 1251 of 365 4 lyf. So a while ago I posted some of my prints for sale at deviant art. Haven’t actually sold anything, but I figured, hey, why the hell not. So umm, yeah, if you want pretty much anything in my stream as a print, I can probably make that happen. Just…

Day 1250 of 365 4 lyf. 1,250 days. What the hell? Sometimes this whole project can just be overwhelming. I think I’ve mentioned before that I ran out of things to proove with it a long time ago. It’s inertia that keeps me going at this point. I just don’t know how to stop. Even…

Day 1249 of 365 4 lyf. 1000 days ago I fiinshed converting the original master bedroom in our house into my new studio. It seems like so long ago now. Now I’ve spent like a gazillion dollars on additional lights and equipment and I need a new studio again. Blah, why I can’t I be…

Day 1248 of 365 4 lyf. You know what’s neat about taking a picture of yourself every day? It means you can pretty much go back to some arbitrary point in the past and see what was going on in your life back then. What you looked like. Compare. See how you’ve changed. So today…

Day 1247 of 365 4 lyf. I’m often told by people that I don’t smile enough. I really don’t know why I don’t. It’s just not me. But I figured, hey, maybe I should give it a try sometime. So here we go. Ok, granted I had to get pretty drunk to do it. I…

Day 1246 of 365 4 lyf. This looks like my regular backup shot, doesn’t it? Well, it’s not really. I have this thing where I hate strobes, but they’re kinda useful, so I’ve bought some new ones (Alien Bees B800s) and some nice professional remote triggers and I’ve been practicing with them. So this is…

Day 1245 of 365 4 lyf. Ok, to whoever likes snow. To whoever complained about the last couple of winters being too mild. To whoever complains about it being cold in the southern United States. To whoever wrote the songs "I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas" and "Let it Snow." To whoever even invented the…

Day 1244 of 365 4 lyf. Oh yeah, I’ve so been waiting for this: We, the undersigned, constituting the Return Board of the County of Allegheny, do hereby certify that at the Election held on the third day of November, 2009, Chris Maverick was duly elected to the Office of Judge of Election in Pittsburgh…

Day 1243 of 365 4 lyf. It’s still January and it’s still cold. Ugh. So cold in fact that I had to go out and get myself a ski mask to keep warm. I think it’s hella cute, but Steph keeps telling me that I shouldn’t wear it out, especially if I go into a…

Day 1242 of 365 4 lyf. The worst part about taking a vacation is coming back. I had a week and a half off but that ended today. Work wasn’t bad or anything like that but it was SO exhausting. I was completely wiped by like 1:30. Got home and immediately took a nap. Maybe…

Day 1240 of 365 4 lyf. Amaya was busy with other people New Years night, but told me she wanted to hang out sometime soon. So we did that today. Girls night out. Well, in really. A fun night of drinking and playing wii games followed by a late night dinner at Tom’s Diner. Me…
