My friend Erik asked me to help him shoot a small charity fashion shoot in honor of his father-in-law, who worked in cancer research. It wasn't a paid gig, and the event was a little rushed, so there wasn't any sort of compensation, aside from maybe a few drinks afterwards with a friend.

The lighting could not have been worse, since they shut off the

So, I'm fairly certain I write these posts for my own cathartic release, as I doubt anyone reads them. Regardless of that, I still enjoy updating these posts in secret as it's a fun outlet just the same.

The OKCupid girl I spoke of in a previous post came back to town. I spoke about her as only a vivid memory, but now she's here

My coworker threw down the Memphis Flyer, a local events and art paper, on my desk and pointed to a small photo of Yann Tierson and smugly asked if I was going to go see him. I was shocked that he was coming to Memphis, and to a small-time venue at that. I got there a little late but was able to stand next to...

Saw these guys play last Wednesday. It was hot as hell in the venue, but still a lot of fun. They steamrolled through most of the songs from The Bones of What You Believe which kept the show short and fast paced.

Flaky people are the worst. I don't mind in a group setting if people bail on plans to meet up. If you're meeting with friends at a bar for instance, if one person decides to stay home or make other plans it's fine.

I've actually mentioned her before on my half-assed attempt at maintaining a blog. She could easily be a hopeful on the site. The

A friend of mine was in a major car accident in January, putting her in to a halo (a metal contraption to restrict neck movement if you don't know) and basically rendering her useless for about 5 months. Just recently she had the halo removed, but she's still holed up at her mother's house for the time being. She had to quit her job and

Current Status, listening to this track on repeat throughout the day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcdGkFsfUM4

Anyone else a closet dubstep fan? I've been listening to the Going Quantum and Drone Music Official podcast for awhile now and they're like audible caffeine for driving or working out.

I wonder how sincere some of the Suicide Girls are in regards to their interests in nerd culture, and how much of that is pandering to an audience willing to shell out money and time to the fantasy. Do you think all the girls supposedly in to vintage video games, Star Wars, Star Trek, comic books, indie films, metal bands, and the like are legitimate...
