Day 461 of 365 More. It’s cold. Freezing actually. I guess winter is definitely approaching. I always find it weird when the seasons start to change. Especially in a place like Pittsburgh. You sort if expect there to be 4 seasons. You expect summer to gradually fade away to fall and then the temperature to…

Day 460 of 365 More. This probably looks a lot more depressing than I actually feel. I just wanted to play with light a bit today and the white t-shirt I was wearing really lent itself to an idea I had. Not much to talk about today. I went to work, I came home, played…

Day 459 of 365 More. I already know Steph is going to hate this picture but I really like it, so oh well. Anyway, a couple years ago, my friend Mike got into Lomography. Basically some Russian guys invented a really crappy camera with bad optics and instead of throwing the thing out, they put…

Day 458 of 365 More. And back to normal. Weird thing about coming off a wrestling weekend. I spent the whole day at work, and not one person hit another person with a chair. No one dove off of anything into anyone else. No one got bodyslammed into thumbtacks. I didn’t even see anyone poke…

Day 457 of 365 More. Well, its about time. Today, I broke my six month losing streak in wrestling. The last couple of months I’ve taken a bodyguard in Black Diamond Wrestling. The Bulldozer. That’s him there. Here’s a good rule if you ever become a professional wrestler. If you’re 5’8 and 180lbs, its maybe…

Day 456 of 365 More. So, I got my truck back this morning. According to my ticket, I was blocking someone’s driveway and they couldn’t get out so they had me towed. I don’t think I actually was, I almost always check that whenever I park, but I can’t prove that either, so that’s $110…

Day 455 of 365 More. And the hits just keep on coming. Got out of work and couldn’t remember where I parked my car. I always park on the same street on one of two blocks. I don’t always remember where, but its usually easy to find. And yet, I couldn’t. I walked the blocks…

Day 454 of 365 More. Weird thing about working for a small company (we have 15 employees). Sometimes, you end up having to wear multiple hats. Sometimes your company is moving to a new building which is under construction and they say "hey you, artistic boy, come help us figure out what the hell this…

Day 453 of 365 More. Here’s how my brain works. I’m actually not as into this project as I used to be. I lost my fascination with it ages ago. I don’t daydream about it. I don’t obsess over getting a specific shot every day. At this point, its pure inertia that gets me through…

Day 452 of 365 More. So, I’m actually still sick. In the old days, I’d just chug a big bottle of Q and be done with it, but now, I have the problem of having to get up for work in the mornings. *sigh* Damn society! Forcing me to work and shit! Anyway, 24-hour, non-drowsy…

Day 451 of 365 More. With all due apologies to Amaya, Marlo, Sarah and the others, meet my favorite model, Sunrise Adams. Ok, she would be, except that she has no idea who I am and has never posed for me. Given the way I behave, it might surprise people to know that I’m not…

Day 450 of 365 More. You know its a great party when you have trouble getting out of bed the next morning. Last night was a great party. Of course, i didn’t wake up in bed with four hot babes, two midgets and a donkey, but hey, it was just halloween, not jammy jam, so…

Day 449 of 365 More. Another year, another Halloween in the books. Last night was Halloween Jam, possibly the most traditional of my usual parties, because everyone dresses up for Halloween, right? As per usual, my costumes were a super secret surprise. For my first outfit, I was a 1920s gangster. I’d worn that to…

Day 448 of 365 More. Mission complete. A lot of people have been wondering what the secret mssion from 10-14-07 was. Well today I can finally say. Today is Steph and my anniversary. And for a present, I bought her a brand new Wii. The only video game console she has ever wanted. After we…

Day 447 of 365 More. My anniversary is tomorrow. My Halloween party is Saturday. I woke up today as sick as a dog. This is totally not going to work. I could go for downing a bottle of Nyqil, and I haven’t ruled that out, but I think I need results a little faster than…
