Happy to report this October month has been a good one.  Eletrocutions party on the 5th went off well with a large attendance.  Even tho P drank himself out that night we still had a mostly good time.  There was an Industrial (and goth) night at the Catch One we went to, got in free on the DJLIST.  Fun music and decent dancing, again a mostly good ( Read more... )

I'm so sick of not getting jobs.  My rate has been pretty amazing for the duration of my career compared to other professional photographers.  But this is bullshit.  I'm going to rasie my rates from $650 for wedds to $1000.  Let see if joining the collective average does anything for my buisness at all. I always thought I'd stand out because Im, " ( Read more... )

Been meaning to post but keep not getting around to it.  I went on my Chicago/Tennesse trip to visit my Mom/Dad for the first time since he moved there.   They are old AF.  Specically my Mom.  Seeing ones parents get old is a very disturbing process.  That that would be me at some point just sounds disatrous.  And then whats happening to mom IS ( Read more... )

What up LJ.  So RM update.  There is one contender, but I wont get the deposit from him till 10 days from now "when he gets paid" so really, nothing I can count on but at least a maybe.  My Chicago/Tennesse trip looms at the end of August/Sept (leave the 25th) LOJ is not this weekend but next..........  so I am doing my first run on final costume ( Read more... )

Updates. Still no jobs except the Quince I have at the end of July. Yesterday interviewed a potential RM and looks like it will go thru... move in this Friday, pending. My apt building is re-roofing and so there is a lot of pounding going on for two days. Not enjoyable. Had my Tea Party shoot this last weekend. Everyone LOOOOOVED the special ( Read more... )

The shoot yesterday. Personally, I had a mostly very nice day. I was preoccupied with how everyone else was feeling / dealing with, any potential challenges. Like hauling 4 carts of heavy ass gear and 2 heavy AF tables, up and down 3 flights of stairs. I NARROWLY avoided Marys (being late) complete meltdown that the lot was FULL and she would ( Read more... )

Just now laughing at myself what a slave driver I am for being organized in these shoos I do. I have to message 22 people individually, so many multiple times, so they show up when I need them to be there. Instead of doing the dead goth trickle. I'm glad they seem to tolerate it or stay patient with me... because I'm like SEE YOU AT 11AM BITCHES ( Read more... )

Updating. Life is at a low. Still feeling meh a majority of time, due to my current Job and RM fail situation, my Mom being hella fucked up health-wise, and through it all, zero emotional support. (why would I ever think to even mention "emotional support" lol, I have not had such since 2004) One nice turn of events is I think my long-time ( Read more... )

Been feeling despondent this week. Been having major insomnia due to hormone fluctuations most likely. Not to mention migraines are still on the table now and again. I just got a new migraine drug to test at least, going to pick up today at CVS. Eletriptan, I like the sound of that word. I've been on Naratriptan and it works well - as long as ( Read more... )

So not in the mood today to get my things done. My birthday wed night went very well.... it was a lot of fun. I also had drinks that night, after like 3 months sober. I was lucky enough to not get a migraine the next day & week, like I did last time. I still was so lethargic and crapped out I was in bed all day watching TV. I'm really just SO ( Read more... )
