Day 1215 of 365 4 lyf. Bah Humbug! Christmas is right around the corner and I’m still not done shopping. I know, I know I have more than two weeks, but I just don’t like it. Too much stress, too much freaking out. Oh well, I’ll get there. 365 days

Day 1214 of 365 4 lyf. Christmas surprises. Steph went to bed early tonight, so I decided to put the tree together. Now she has a meeting early in the morning. So the question is will she check flickr before she goes downstairs (probably not) and will she notice the tree before she leaves in…

Day 1213 of 365 4 lyf. A little shamless plea for attention never hurt anyone, right? Actually, I totally stole this idea from Ms Morgan who made her own shamless plea a while back. So since she gave me the idea, you should totally go friend her too. Anyway, and most importantly, I haven’t plugged…

Day 1212 of 365 4 lyf. So on election days the past several years, I’ve had this thing where I refuse to vote for anyone who is running unopposed. So when I see something like that, I do the natural thing. I write my own name in. So I got a letter in the mail…

Day 1211 of 365 4 lyf. You know, if I was single, I’d totally use this as my Christmas card. Well, ok probably not, because single guys don’t do Christmas cards, but if I were single and a girl, then I’d totally use this. Well, ok no, because if I were single and a girl,…

Day 1210 of 365 4 lyf. You know what the nice thing about having a job at Christmas time is? You have money to go shopping for presents. You know what the sucky part is? You have no time to go shopping for presents. So I ended up going out really late tonight to get…

Day 1209 of 365 4 lyf. I love Christmas lights. A big hobby around this time of year when I was a kid was for the family to drive around and see what people put up in the neighborhood. But I’ve never gotten around to doing anything like that myself. But a house across the…

Day 1208 of 365 4 lyf. You know, I can’t believe i never got around to doing this shot before just now. Sometimes it’s the simplest things that escape us. I’ll have to endeavor to remember that more often in everyday life. 365 days

Day 1207 of 365 4 lyf. I wasn’t really in the mood to take a picture today, so I went in the studio to default to one of my usual backup shots. But then I didn’t really want to do that either. What to do, what to do? Then it occurred to me that it…

Day 1206 of 365 4 lyf. So, last year Steph and I decided to make our own christmas cards. We liked how they turned out so much that we decided that maybe we’d do it again. I really can’t see us tossing together a standard "here’s what our family did this year" newsletter thingee, so…

Day 1205 of 365 4 lyf. If you’ve been around my photostream for a while, you might recognize Nicki who modeled for me a couple times way way back. Well, she graduated and moved away, but was home for Thanksgiving, visiting her family, so when she mentioned that she’d be going out to Hines Ward’s…

Day 1204 of 365 4 lyf. So it’s Black Friday. The first day of the Christmas shopping season. I actually really like shopping, like a whole lot. My mother and my grandmother drilled into me at a very young age that you never ever ever pass up a good sale. But I’m just not the…

Day 1203 of 365 4 lyf. Tryptophan. Most people say it’s a myth. That turkey doesn’t make you drowsy. Those people can go to hell. Had thanksgiving dinner with Steph’s family, came home and tried to do some work. Problem is I’m beat. Big day tomorrow. Time to start the Chrismas shopping season. 365 days

Day 1202 of 365 4 lyf. So I’ve been trying really hard to get back in shape lately. Steph works at Carnegie Mellon University, which means we have full access to their gym. Aside from working out at home, we’ve been going there once a week. Today I didn’t stretch as properly as I should…

Day 1201 of 365 4 lyf. So certain people have been telling me that I should work on selling my stuff more often. I’ve had a DeviantArt account for a couple years now, but I never got around to doing anything with it. But since they allow you to sell prints of your stuff, I…
