Day 219 of 365 days. I’m always amazed at the kinds of toys kids have today. How much cooler they are than "back in my day." But the really odd thing about kids is how they can be amused by very simple things that maybe grown-ups take for granted. Steph and I went to a…
Day 218 of 365 days. Three days of color in a row. It’s been a long time since I did that. And Max is still out of the country so I can’t even brag to him about it. Had a busy day today and no time to really come up with any thing crazy. Finally…
Day 217 of 365 days. I was looking through my previous pictures earlier and just enjoying seeing where I’ve been and what I’ve done, and I realized that I hadn’t really done a simple portrait in quite a while. I’ve just been taking shots that were somehow related to my day and talking about that.…
Day 216 of 365 days. The kids have been wearing these crazy shoes lately with roller skates built in. There have even been a few news stories about them (don’t let your kids wear Heelys, they’ll bust their skulls). I’ve seen 8-year-olds zipping around the mall on them from time to time in the last…
An alternate shot of my day 215, 365 shot. I’m still not convinced I chose the right one.
Day 215 of 365 days. Found out today that I didn’t get one of the jobs I was up for. I don’t know that I’m super-bummed out about it. It wasn’t the greatest job ever or anything like that, in fact if I were offered everything I have applied for lately, that would not have…
Day 214 of 365 days. I had a job interview today. Went in and was corporate Mav. Or as close to that as I get these days. I probably could have gotten SOME job a while ago, but I’ve been so unhappy with SOME job in the past that now I’m pretty much laying all…
Day 212 of 365 days. One of my earliest ideas was to do a fetal position pic in this project. I just never really got around to it. Funny because it seemed like a really obvious backup picture to do. Turns out, not so much. First of all, I’m neurotic and certainly couldn’t just lay…
Day 211 of 365 days. You know its a lazy weekend day when its basically the evening before you even bother to shower. Steph and I spent the day lounging around the house and playing sudoku before we finally ordered chinese food and got showered to go to a party. I had been wanting to…
Day 210 of 365 days. Earlier this week, Marvel Comics made the "shocking" decision to kill off Captain America in the name of a sales boost. What’s the shocking part? The world actually cared. It was in the papers. It was on the news. Non-comic book fans went into my local comic shop and bought…
Day 209 of 365 days. I was really creative yesterday (and in fact, I thought it was an awesome shot, that didn’t get nearly as much attention as it deserved. I’m kinda pissed about it, actually, so go on ahead and check it out and leave me tons of comments and faves, dammit), so it…
Day 208 of 365 days. I had been meaning to do this shot for a while. Ever since the lovely and talented (take that Amber :-P) Sassyshannon999 made her Inspired by the Film group. It suddenly occurs to me that Scarface is not among my 519 DVDs. Clearly that is some sort of oversight that…
Day 207 of 365 days. Sometimes date night isn’t super romantic. Today, Steph and I went to look at carpet for the upstairs bedroom that we’ve bee working on. It’s not exactly a candlelit dinner with handholding, but it was something nice to do and important. Tomorrow they’re coming to measure the attic and soon…
Day 206 of 365 days. I had actually been thinking of doing this back when Steph was doing her tributes to famous paintings, but I never got around to it. But I then when I got this weeks Class With Dave assignment I was happy that I’d be able to use it. This image is…
Day 205 of 365 days. Generally I don’t really like to repeat the same basic shot two days in a row (unless I plan ahead for a good reason, like with my day 182 and day 183 shots), but the dichotomy of today just made this too perfect. Yesterday I was in a room of…
