Day 509 of 365 More. Wow, I got a lot done today. It reminds me of my old productive days of unemployment. The only thing is I have to remember that I do have a job in the morning, so I better get some sleep. Anyway, I did accomplish quite a few things. First of…

Day 508 of 365 More. And Happy New Year. I personally didn’t do very much today, so I don’t have much to talk about. I spent the day recovering from my new years hangover while working on photos and playing video games. Instead I’d like to use this space to welcome all the new 365ers…

Day 507 of 365 More. Another year bites the dust. This one ending a little better than the last I guess. I mean at least I have a job. On the other hand, tonight is the first new years in a long long time where I don’t have any real plans. So I guess its…

Day 506 of 365 More. It was the final Steelers game of the season so I invited several of my friends over to watch the game and exchange Christmas presents. Since Sarah’s Steelers’ Jersey and underwear shoot idea worked so well at giving the team the win, I figured it’d be a good idea to…

Day 505 of 365 More. And the 365 Days project just grows and grows. This evening, I filmed the inaugural addition of the 365 Days podcast with Stephen Poff. It went pretty smoothly even if we did end up doing a much longer show than we initially envisioned. He needs to edit it still, but…

Day 504 of 365 More. Where do they all come from? Steph and I are getting our new couches in the morning, which meant we had to prepare for it today. Much like anything else, there were extra pieces left over. At this point I’m too sleepy to think. Apologies to Sarah and Liz. I…

Day 503 of 365 More. ALERT! ALERT! Photostream views are about to reach critical. When I came home from work today, I found that my photostream was only a couple hundred views away from the 250,000 mark. It was only 10 months ago when I was all excited about hitting 100,000. I’ve wanted to be…

Day 502 of 365 More. One of the things I always wanted to use 365 for was experimenting. Sometimes I come up with little camera tricks that I don’t really want to bother with fiddling with during an actual shoot, so why not try them on myself. Only I haven’t been doing them much lately,…

Day 501 of 365 More. On December 25th, 2006, the Godfather of Soul, the hardest working man in show business, one Mr. James Brown, died. To remember him, people the world over now give gifts of music to each other. In celebration of that, i presented Steph on this very Funkmas an edition of Rock…

Day 500 of 365 More. 500 days ago, I saw Stephen Poff’s Superman picture and it inspired me to start the 365 Days project. Back then i never knew that it would eventually change my life and the lives of so many others. I like to mark big milestones in this project with big posts…

Day 499 of 365 More. In this joyous holiday season I am reminded of one of my favorite carols. Please join me in singing along to that old classic by Mr. Nat King Cole. O Festivus Pole, O Festivus Pole, Your single beam delights us. O Festivus Pole, O Festivus Pole, Your single beam delights…

Day 498 of 365 More. Today is the fourth anniversary of the worst day of my life. I still miss you, ‘Lonzo. So it’s not a good day to start. But then it gets even worse. Got up early this morning to take my car in to get its annual emissions test. It goes smoothly.…

Day 497 of 365 More. Today was Max’s birthday. Tomorrow is Jameel’s birthday. I learned when I was like 4 that sometimes when your birthdays are close with someone else’s (my cousin’s birthday is 2 days before mine), you have to share parties. That’s what happened for Jameel and Max today. First, after work we…

Day 496 of 365 More. Got my car back and went to work. These last several days of not really sleeping are starting to catch up to me. I was ass tired all day. Hopefully I’ll get a good night’s sleep tonight because tomorrow I make my return to Baraoke! Tonight, was the beginning of…

Day 495 of 365 More. Well, that got your attention didn’t it? More on that later. So, at long last I’ve finished the coffee table book of the first year of 365 Days. Talk about a labor of love. There’s not just the straight year of self-portraits, editing the book was a bitch and a…
