Day 271 of 365 days.

Made a little bit of progress on the job front today, as I took calls from 3 different recruiters, including the one i talked to yesterday who thinks that the job she’s recruiting for is a virtual sure thing for me. Of course I’ve heard that before. Interview is tomorrow. We’ll see how it goes.

I also get to take a drug test, which won’t be a problem at all, unless they test for nicotine, alcohol, chocolate, dvds or photography. Geeze, I have way too many addictions. Who can afford crack?

Whenever I do start working again, I’m really going to have to adjust my lifestyle, and sadly my photography will probably suffer for it. I’ve been staying up til 4 and 5 in the morning a lot lately working on the Tarot pics and other photo stuff. I’ve been really happy with the progress and its going to be a shame to lose that just to be able to do silly stuff like pay the bills and eat.

Also, if you haven’t looked at the Maverick Tarot yet, or in a while, please check them out. There are 8 cards now, and I’d love to hear some feedback about them. I have at least 4 photoshoots coming up in the next week or so, so there should be even more coming along. I’m going to have to do some of the non gothy naked cards soon. I don’t want people to think that’s all I’m interested in for it.

    Oh wow! This is another really good one! Everybody takes an eye pic, but wow! Talk about taking it to another level. Great work!

    @lrayholly: really? I wasn’t so sure on this one. It felt kind of hokey.

    I like this pic a lot. You did a really great job. I bet crack would probably be a lot cheaper than your other addictions. You might want to look into it. (joking, don’t want any of my friends on crack!)

    @Kungfukitten: oh… 365 days of crack is next year’s project. Thank you. Glad you like the pic. I’m still unsure on it.

    Good luck on the interview. I know my imagination fell way off when I started working again. But, well, having a paycheck is a pretty good thing too.


    Seen on your photo stream. (?)

    HA! This is very cool babe!

    @Travelinjim: thanks. We’ll see. Actually, I’m kinda optimistic about my chances, less so about my liking the job. We’ll see how it goes.

    @PhotoKat: thank you. I am so amazed that people like it this much.

    don’t worry, we know you like ALL kinds of naked pics 😉

    but seriously, nice pic. creative idea.

  10. May 10, 2007 at 1:16 pm

    @beststephi: I’m sure there are plenty of naked pics that I don’t like. And thank you.

    I think you are too hard on yourself…this has wonderful detail for "just an eye shot" in my opinion.

  12. May 10, 2007 at 8:18 pm

    It is a pretty cool shot Mav, and I agree with about the detail.

    Good luck with the interview…and yeah, adjusting to working again will surely suck, but we’re here for ya. 😉

    do i have to leave a comment if i faved it? 🙂

  14. May 10, 2007 at 11:40 pm

    @dramamath: thank you. I’m glad so many people like it. It really was kind of an afterthought.

    @sadandbeautiful (Sarah): thanks. I kind of talked about it in today’s pic.

    @pi c’s: well, no, but it is always nice to hear from you.

    I know there’s a discussion topic in 365 Days for the "everyone else likes this picture but I just don’t get it" picture but I can’t find it. It seems this is one of those. 🙂

  16. May 11, 2007 at 12:47 am

    @Kungfukitten: i think its an ok pic. I think its even kinda clever. I just didn’t think it was as great as everyone else does.

  17. May 18, 2007 at 9:11 pm

    I love love love this one, evne if you don’t think it’s your cleverest. Even your worst ones blow mine away. Hope the interview went well! I’ll like it better when we’re not both in the same boat. :-0

  18. May 19, 2007 at 3:32 pm

    @KarenMarleneLarsen: still no word on the job front. Did hear from a recruiter on Friday about something that sounds better, but its still the very early stages of that. Glad you like the pic.

  19. May 29, 2007 at 12:09 am

    i like it too! your "hokey" = my "cute"

  20. May 29, 2007 at 12:21 am

    @queentassone: yay! I’m cute. I’m good with being cute.

  21. May 20, 2008 at 6:37 pm

    fantastic!!
    and jobs ARE starting to screen for photography, I lost out on a sweet web design job because I came up positive for SLR.

  22. May 22, 2008 at 2:33 pm

    @Dupmeister: heh…I’d be in trouble.
