Day 376 of 365 More. Ok, new plan. I’ve decided to start over. Not the project. I mean my life. Actually, better yet. I’m starting the entire universe over. Effectively immediately, I am devolving all of creation back into a cosmic cloud of dust. I think I’m going to take this here subatomic tachyon and…

Day 375 of 365 More. I’m still depressed but I’m trying to fight it. Spent the day working on editing all of my 365 entries from last year for a coffee table book. Then I applied for a bunch of jobs, so that I could pretend I have a future that doesn’t involve begging on…

Day 374 of 365 More. Depression breeds creativity. Apparently anyway. At mediocre creativity. See… I’m trapped. My only outlet is photography. It’s a metaphor, get it? Oh nevermind. Was once again hoping for a job call. Was once again disappointed. I do have a bead on a very short contract (maybe a week) with an…

Day 373 of 365 More. Isn’t August supposed to be warm? What the fuck happened? Spent the afternoon at Dave & Buster’s restaurant for a friends birthday party enjoying exciting games of shuffleboard. Came home and watched movies with Steph. The nice thing about having a monster DVD collection is that you can always find…

Day 372 of 365 More. Completing the first week of the second year. Not a whole lot to talk about today. Steph and I stayed in the house most of the day and watched TV. Then in the evening we went to the grocery store before heading over to friends’ house to watch preseason football…

Day 371 of 365 More. I’m still in that slow "what did I get myself into" phase of this second year of self-portraits. Just not inspired. Hopefully that will pass soon. Called the job I wanted today. The good news is that they still haven’t made a choice so I’m not out of the running.…

Day 370 of 365 More. You know, I’ve never gotten so few views of nekkid girl pictures as I did with those I posted today. What the hell is up with that? And it really is some of my best work besides. Not much exciting to talk about today. Took Amaya and Cade to meet…

Day 369 of 365 More. The first time I’ve done a cell phone picture in the second year. That didn’t take a long time did it. Steph and I went to a poker tournament tonight at a local bar. Free to play, witha $100 prize. I didn’t get great cards at all, but I hung…

Day 368 of 365 More. This photo really has nothing to do wtih what I did today at all. Honestly I didn’t do much of anything today. Spent the morning working on my book, then editing photos from the waterfall shoot (coming soon, I swear) and finally went out for drinks with my friend Ryan…

Day 367 of 365 More. And on the 367th day he rested. I had actually intended to do this shot for my day 366. But after the response on my day 365 shot, I really felt like I had to dedicate a shot to my viewers. That bumped my resting day to today. I really…

Day 366 of 365 More. Cheers. Before I do anything else, I want to wish a happy birthday to my lovely fiancee, Stephanie. In many ways, 365 only exists because of Stephanie. We went on vacation for her birthday last year and while she was sleeping, I was in a hotel room with nothing to…

Day 365 of 365 days. 1 year. 365 photos. 4964 shots taken to get there. I was kind of hoping that I’d get a call from the job I want yesterday so that my story would have a happy ending, but I guess that wasn’t to be. As I said yesterday, I don’t know what…

Day 364 of 365 days. "I’m not merciful or blessed. I’m just me. I’ve got a job to do and I do it….When the first living thing existed, I was there. Waiting. When the last living thing dies, my job will be finished. I’ll put the chairs on the tables, turn out the lights and…

Day 363 of 365 days. A lot of people have asked me if Jack Scoresby is really dead after yesterday’s picture. Of course not. He’s alive and well. Just shorter than he used to be. See… he’s right here. Strangely, after taking his head and absorbing his power, my photo style has changed a little…

Day 362 of 365 days. Jack Scoresby is dead. I was forced to take his life. As many of you may know, Jack has been traveling the countryside the last week or so and visiting other flickr photographers. It all sounded very interesting and harmless. He spent the last several days with Katie West. But…
