Day 545 of 365 More. Spent a nice relaxing evening with Steph tonight. We went to dinner. Went shoe shopping. And then came home and watched bad television. What could be more fun than that. That said, after she went to bed, I did watch a comedy special, My Buddy Bill, comedy writer Rick Cleveland’s…
Day 541 of 365 More. Once upon a time, there was a boy named Plaxico Burress. Plax was gifted with much height and large hands and all the physical tools that one might look at him and expect that he’d be a top notch NFL receiver. Unfortunately, he had an IQ of slightly less than…
Day 539 of 365 More. One of the nice things about my life is having my own hottub. Anytime I’m feeling worn out, or my joints are feeling stiff or for whatever reason, I’m just too stressed out, all I have to do is come home, go on my back porch and jump in. That’s…
Steph taking a picture of Faisal taking a picture of my exhibit at last night’s gallery show.
Day 526 of 365 More. And I’m done. It’s about time. Had the show at Creative Treehouse. I had said ahead of time that if I sold one print I would consider it a success. I sold four! So, I guess that’s 400% of my expectations. So woohoo! Of course I spent far more on…
Day 520 of 365 More. So I slept in today. Anyone who has been paying attention the last couple weeks probably knows that I seriously needed it. I woke up to hear hammer and dropping things and cursing and came downstairs to discover Steph putting together the new bookshelf that we bought the other day.…
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 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 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 490 of 365 More. It’s not quite a partridge and a pear tree, but today is the first day of the 12 days of Christmas. Steph and I started the celebration by going out and doing some shopping after work, and then coming home and putting together our tiny little Christmas tree. Seeing as…
Day 478 of 365 More. I really need to buy a fireplace for my house. I have a gas line hookup for one, and I’ve been saying that I’d get some logs to put in there since we bought the house, but I’ve never got around to doing it. It’s been cold and rainy all…
Day 473 of 365 More. I’m getting fat. Honestly half the time I feel like I’m already there. Really, I don’t need to lose much weight, but I could stand to dump 10 pounds again. And tone up. I’ve seriously slacked off on my workouts and I’m in really crappy shape. So I decided to…
Day 463 of 365 More. Woke up this morning with mail from a model who wanted to shoot today. I was free this afternoon and so I said yes. And then I got stood up. What the hell? Apparently, I’m just the guy that screams "hey walk all over me." Anyway, this evening was the…
