Seems like a good time to share my favorite pictures from THE SELFIE PROJECT from April. I’ve been trying to be more interesting with the pictures, or at least more interesting with my life, since it felt like in January and February I didn’t do anything. I don’t know if… Read More »Selfie Project – April
It has been awhile since we checked in with THE SELFIE PROJECT. I figured today was as good of a day as any to check out March before April is over. I’m not sure I did more interesting things in March than I did in February or January where it… Read More »Selfie Project – March

Sometime in late 2008 my organizational process of my photos went all FUBAR. The result is that it appears that I have actually lost several images from late 2008 and early 2009. None of the lost pictures are of much consequence, but it is annoying nonetheless. Part of this breakdown… Read More »12December2008

The pictures from the folder 11-15-08 are from the final home game in Iowa State’s Gene Chizik era. I can still remember the afternoon I head that Chizik was leaving for Auburn.
