This one is special. Trixie (MM#1534372) and I had wanted to enter another Zivity contest. This one was "what I wanted to be." Since I know her through prowrestling, it was kinda a gimmie. We went to a friend’s training facility and shot this set. A different kinda glamour. Dark, dingy, it was 8 degrees outside and the room was unheated. But if you love something, you make sacrifices. The full set was posted to Zivity yesterday but this is a sample.

I was actually quite worried about this one, given how gritty and down and dirty it was. Everything from lighting to processing was different from the kind of stuff I normally do. But so far, it’s been pretty well received. So anyway, go check it out.

Day 669 of 365 More.

In some ways I miss last year. This time last year I was unemployed and looking for work. Looking for work only takes so much time out of your week, so the rest of the time I spent working on photography and working out like I was in prison.

I was in great shape.

I’m not anymore. I’m fat and flabby and generally just not comfortable in my body. I spend most of my day at work and most of my evenings working on the comic strip or the podcast. It doesn’t leave a lot of time for anything else.

Don’t get me wrong, I love doing the podcast and Hellcats is a childhood dream come true. I mean, I’d be happier with both of them if I had more of an audience, but I’m hopeful that will happen.

I just don’t much like looking in the mirror or looking at pictures of me anymore.

So I took a break tonight and did some weight lifting. I don’t really feel like I look any better, but it’s a start. I need to work on the strip some more tonight, but if I can do that and still convince myself to get up early tomorrow, maybe I’ll put in 30 min. on the elliptical.

It’s time to bring sexy back one more time.
