Day 204 of 365 days. Witness the grandmother of all back up shots. It was a pretty long day. First I got a rejection letter in the mail for a job that claims I interviewed well, but I don’t remember even applying for, much less interviewing for. From there, Steph and I went to Gina’s…
Day 203 of 365 days. I was talking with the lovely and talented Katy Hutch earlier today and we were joking about Dateline NBC’s "To Catch a Predator" and specifically my blog entry about how I was going to flirt with children online in an ill advised attempt to get on TV. (Katy was nice…
Day 202 of 365 days. Oh what a difference a day makes. It’s been an intersting 24 hours. I survived yesterday’s early morning car incident only to spend the entire day taking care of tons of errands (including buying new backdrop cloth for the studio, woohoo!). Then, last night, I went to my friend Mike’s…
Day 201 of 365 days. I’ve had this idea since maybe the first or second week I started this project. I just never got around to doing it before. I think I even mentioned to TravelinJim on a pic of his that I had a cool long exposure idea. Well, since I’m going to be…
Day 200 of 365 days. How much a part of my life has this project become? This is day 200 and I didn’t even realize that til I was posting. So I didn’t think to plan anything special or huge or vainglorious. It was just another day in my life and I took a picture…
Day 199 of 365 days. There was actually a lot I wanted to get around to doing today. Working on some photo editting. Working on my paper for the conference. Playing some quality video games. Didn’t really get to any of that. Instead, I spent the day doing phone interviews for a couple different jobs.…
Day 198 of 365 days. A black man, a white man, a filipino man and a japanese man walk into a porn store… That’s not really a dirty joke. But it is the end to my very long day. Got up early to drive to a wrestling show 4 hours away with fellow wrestlers, Sterling…
Day 197 of 365 days. Gotta love technology. Went to a violin recital with Steph and her family to see her nephew play. At the risk of sounding like an ass, let me say what the biggest problem with kids recitals is. They’re not really that good. I mean sure some of the kids are…
Day 196 of 365 days. Introducing the NEW Black Diamond Wrestling tag team champions! (Affirmative Action: Brandon X and the Notorious M.A.V., pictured here with our manager Johnny Matthews) Went to Brilliant, Ohio for a wrestling show today. Competed in a Tower of Terror match. Maybe one of the stupidest things I’ve ever done. Basic…
Day 195 of 365 days. I got home very late last night from that old lady’s house that I mentioned yesterday. I wish someone had warned me about her. She wanted to do unspeakable things. Just unspeakable! Anyway, it was another productive day for FUNemployed Mav. I talked to a couple different recruiters about jobs.…
Day 194 of 365 days. Today, Steph took me for a walk in the middle of the forest and tried to leave me there. Usually, when she does this I leave a trail of pebbles so I can find my way back. But I was all out this time. So I left a trail of…
Day 193 of 365 days. I hate when I have one of those weeks without lots of good ideas. This is one of those weeks. I actually spent most of the day doing a photoshoot with my pregnant friend, Gina. (I’ll get those online as soon as I can, I’m still working on the Theresa…
Day 192 of 365 days. I love when I have one of those hugely successful lazy days. Sure I slept in. But even with that, I got some culling of pictures from the photoshoot done. I talked to some job recruiters. I thought about the paper I have to write. I dealt with some unemployment…
Day 191 of 365 days. Spent most of the day doing a photoshoot with my friend, the lovely and talented Theresa. I’ve talked before about the difficulty in doing glamour shots of women is convincing the girl to believe she’s sexy, even if you personally know she is. Theresa had never modeled before and took…
Day 190 of 365 days. Slept in today. As long as I possibly could. I’m mostly over having been sick, but not totally and I had a wrestling show today so I wanted to get as much rest as possible. Finally got up, ate some quick lunch and got showered and dressed. Didn’t have a…
