Last Tuesday – 12.30.08

Okay.  Back in business.  Play time is over.  I was super productive today and tomorrow I will be too.  I have 5 updates starting now to go up and that are basically ready to go up.  I have all these photos tonight, then two sets from New Years tomorrow, followed by photos from Trash to go up Sunday and then some other stuff in betwixt.  Today I got a lot of shit done, but you just don’t know it yet.  New Years was exhausting, I spent New Years Day in bed, but today was productive and tomorrow will be and then Sunday is the playoffs and I will either be too busy celebrating or too busy crying to deal with reality so don’t expect much Sunday.  But between Monday and Thursday I need to get a lot of shit done to prepare for my west coast trip.  And then once I get back from Vegas/LA I have two weeks to do nothing but work on this site before I really need to start looking for a job.  Let’s start cooking.

Okay, on to Tuesdays photos.

Tuesday was a long night.  I went to see Frost/Nixon and then I went to see some stand up comedy.  My friend and favorite comic Pete Holmes was headlining Seth Herzog’s show Sweet and since I don’t have a job anymore I needed to hit that up.   Also at the show was the Mac guy, Justin Long who I had a long conversation with at Sweet about two years ago.  I had just moved to NYC and was working as a bus boy and was not taking photos or doing anything and he and I had a long conversation about life and our brothers and what the hell I was going to do with my life.  Little did I know that he was making Die Hard 4 at the time.  Anyway, I said hi to him, and I am not sure that he actually remembered our conversation but he was unreasonably nice about it and certainly pretended to remember if nothing else.  The guy just sat there for an hour after the show talking to every single person who came up to them like they were his close friend.  It is people like that you are happy to see succeed.  So go see his new film He’s Just Not That Into You.  It doesn’t really look like something that I would really want to see, but it has Eric from Entourage, and the blonde girl from Ghost World, and the chick from Office Space and that dude from Chasing Amy and that little girl from ET.

After comedy I went to Happy Endings.  It was insanely packed and a lot of fun.  My flash was giving me some troubles and at first was underexposing everything, and then it was not working with my auto focus, so for pretty much the first time ever I took it off my camera and held it in my hand.  I hate doing this because I like having two hands free, but it got some pretty cool results.  I was triggering it with the on camera flash and that led to some pretty awful photos and some pretty cool ones.  You are just going to have to check that out for your self.  I will post some of the more interesting ones below.

Around 3 or so this girl I hung out with on Monday came into town for her birthday and I met up with her at some bar in Times Square.  I am not sure why they were afraid to leave Port Authority but I met them at this really empty dive bar on 9th and 42nd.  That was super weird.  She was hanging out with the lead singer of Reel Big Fish.  I sort of was amazed by this, because I had not heard a song from them in 11 years, but I am pretty sure I just sounded like a dick when I was talking to him about it, but I did take a really nice picture of him and his girlfriend so maybe he will forgive me.  Anyway, it was a super weird night and took me like an hour to get home from Times Square at 430 in the morning, but what can you do.

There are a lot of photos below because there are three different places here, and I was experimenting with my flash so I want to show  you some of that stuff.   There is a little bit of nip slip stuff going on here thanks to the 50 photos of Alex Magnetic I took so be careful at work.  And lastly, I interviewed another intern.  You will be hearing more about him soon, his name is Michael and here is a picture of him.

Check out all the photos from all of my adventures Tuesday here.
