Day 268 EXTRA ~ May 25, 2012

Flashback Friday: My First Job.

(Those who know me IRL or AFK have probably heard me tell this story once or twice, but the first job I ever had was as a mascot for my dad’s ice cream parlour.)

After my pops started his ice cream store, he put out an “ad” in the local paper that said a cowspot-flecked egg the size of a truck had been unearthed in a dairy farmer’s field. It had been moved and was being held in a temperature-controlled unit at the local mall (of which he was, you guessed it, the marketing manager). A paleontologist (in reality, his wacko-genius best friend from California heard screaming in this video) had said it still had a viable embryo and they would try and hatch it.

Flash forward six weeks to this day you see right here where a twirly, 14-year old me donned the suit and birthed “Oops the Cowasaurus” to a crowd of screaming (some delighted, some terrified) children.

Believe me when I tell you: this explains a few things.

365 Project Wisdom

The stuff you fancy as your best invariably goes completely unnoticed; your half-assed flailings are hailed as master-strokes.

Day 265 ~ May 22nd, 2012

After my post yesterday, I was wanting to do some more work with faces and the flash… then, well, I had some more fun. (I love the results… you gotta embiggen them)

Also… 100 days to go. Have I told you all lately how much I appreciate all of your support and nice words during this crazy trip for me?

Well… I do. Thank you. :D

You know who rules? (not an ad…)

AdoramaPix.

K. Get this:

I had a picture (the second one…) printed with them and sent to Andrea as a present and (short version) the mailman left his cart unattended for a few minutes and someone stole it off the cart.

Which is lame…

… but I told them the story and they shipped a brand new one free of charge.

So. AdoramaPix rules.

:D
