Sea Level Bears Enchilada
I figured out pretty quickly to not sign up to shoot shows featuring bands I actually wanted to see, because I just can’t pay any attention to, much less enjoy, the music while I’m shooting. There’s just too much to be thinking about, too many variables to keep track of. But I didn’t intend for [...]
My Brother, The Robot
I haven’t seen my brother online in months, so I was surprised to see his name in my buddy list this evening. I messaged him to see if he was actually online.
(5:32:34 PM) Bill: ?
(5:32:50 PM) Brent: hahahaha, I’m in SHOCK right now..
(5:32:54 PM) Bill: what why
(5:33:10 PM) Bill: did you win the lottery?
(5:33:10 PM) [...]
Overthinking
The other night (actually, it was several weeks ago, and I keep meaning to write new stuff and never get around to it…), I was crossing the street. I was on my way to a bar, and this dude in front of me, well, I don’t know where he was headed, but for the time [...]
Backup Dragon
MP3s make my blog interesting without having to do much of that annoying “writing” shit. After shooting photos for four or five years, I finally purchased a plan from a backup service to keep all my photos safe and sound at a datacenter on the moon (or however backup services work). But before I signed [...]
Voicemails from Adam
Christ, time to lighten the mood in here. I’ve been meaning to upload these for EVER (they’re a couple weeks old), but I haven’t found the time. And really, I think they’ll act as a good way to open the windows up on the ol’ blog and air out some of the existential funk that’s [...]
Cupcake Wrapup
Alright, I just thought I’d put a cap on this whole thing before I drop it. It’s been a little heavy in here.
I heard two podcasts recently that really resonated with me, and I’ve edited down a couple morsels of inspiration from them. These are both from The Candid Frame, easily one of my top [...]
“Cupcake” Response Response
So my buddy Joel posted a response blog to my last entry, and I thought I’d rebut, one last time.
His response is exactly the response I was talking about, which is more or less, “You do what you have to do to be able to afford the things you want to do.” But maybe my [...]
I Don’t Want Your Fucking Cupcake
It’s amazing, the effect work has on my general disposition. “Oh, Christ, Bill. Are we complaining about work again?” Number 1: Yes. Number 2: Yes, fuck you.
Unless you’re very close to me (e.g., Nina), I don’t show it much, or I just avoid you, but the past week has worried me a bit. I’m back [...]
Photoblog Relaunch
“Failed to Find a Place for the Imported File”
I just got this error in Lightroom today for the first time, and I panicked a bit, thinking it was a failing hard drive, something wrong with the USB port in my camera, or something wrong with my SD card. Other people posted the problem online, and it seemed to be solved by using a [...]
