Week 43 (2025) – One Month in New Gig – Busy Social Media Weeks – Halloween 2025 Thwarted Plans
I rarely write my blog at night. It’s usually on Monday mornings with my second cup of coffee after reading emails and social media notifications. I’ve been busy this week, and it’s only Tuesday. I wasn’t that busy last week. But today I was (still am, hence writing at night). And yesterday I was busy.…

Bills, Taxes, Adulting – More Shoots, More Covers – Pop-up Store, Showroom, Photo Sessions (at Nett Nett)
Holy fuck… I’m exhausted. And I haven’t even had breakfast. I just filed my 2020 taxes. And fuck. Taxes are scary. Especially when you are not sure what you are doing and you have to file freelance taxes from three different sources. And I paid for my car insurance. And I paid for some more…

Super Bowl Shit – Steady Cover Photo Life – Prints Are Expensive As F
Well… That Super Bowl game was shit. I wanted the Bills to win it since I got Diggs as my wide receiver and I was loving what I saw from the team. I never really liked the Bills or their fans, but I was digging this team. And my cousin Dennis is a huge fan…

February 2021: María’s Cover Story – Patreon is Activated – Prints for Sale
I don’t have hot water, so fuck showering today. It’s cold and cloudy out anyway. I just came back from a long walk. It was fruitless. Yesterday I walked for a long ass time as well. It was good. I did some drone photography and printed my most popular picture as of yet, the Tormenta…

Letter to Mom – Farewell 2020 and Hi To The Uncertain 2021 – Flying to Texas
Hi Mom, What a shit year. You would have hated it. Even though Trump is voted out and you would have loved that… it would have been a weird and confusing year. You hate hospitals. If your last year was this year… you would have hated it more. I miss you like crazy. That’s a…

X-Mas Set and Flying Around – Pay What You Can or Texas Time – Bye-Bye Fantasy Football and Books
I woke up to the sounds of Transformers fucking outside my window. There are issues with the water pipes and drainage on my street. Trucks and other equipment are making a shit ton of mechanical sounds and rock/cement breaking. It sounds like Transformers fucking. I have been doing fucking nothing. Absolutely fucking nothing. I have…

Donatella Died, Valle de Guadalupe Trip – Sex Change – “Paparazzi Daze” Book 63.7% Done
The longer I go without writing, the harder it gets to get back to it. It has happened to me before. It is happening to me again. You forget just how you do it. How do I just sit here and word vomit so much? How did I write a book about Tijuana in a…

YouTube Beer Reviews and Sexy Photo Shoots – Controversial Cover – Starcraft with Friends
It feels like I haven’t written anything in a long time. I guess two weeks is a long time. I remember I got busy. I’m not sure how or when or what I did. But I got busy. I did one photoshoot for the magazine, I haven’t done that in what feels like years. It…

Drinking my Earnings – Done Spamming the Book (Working on the Next One) – LOTR Paparazzo Times (That One Time I Talked to Frodo Baggins)
I woke up at 3:00 a.m. today. I couldn’t go back to bed, so I started watching LOTR The Two Towers for the millionth time. It’s an odd concept to think of this movie as old. And Christopher Lee is gone. I saw a lot of the people in LOTR back in the paparazzo days.…

My neighbor just grabbed my butt a minute ago. I went out to grab coffee beans because I have none. Shitty Oxxo coffee and some yogurt. And on my way back, she was opening the gate. I told her I would open it for her. And she grabbed my butt. SEXUAL HARASSMENT YO!!! She said…

January 2020: Tijuana Adventure BOOK! – More Photoshoots – Buy My Book for $6.64 ! ! !
That year is over. No need to keep counting. I lost count in week 22 or so. I still wake up daily and think of her. And lately, I’ve been having dreams about my mom. It’s weird in the sense that I think my dream is a reality and my reality is a dream. My…

51 Weeks, 0 Days: Busy and Broke – Chef Trolling – TJ Adventure Tour Revivals and Book
51 Weeks, 0 Days. I feel like I’ve been the busiest to earn the least amount of money. I expected three small paychecks that would equal my rent but received only one. I was prepared to spend the next two weeks broke. I could barely afford to pay rent. But then… I got paid for…

43 Weeks, 3 Days. I was depressed yesterday. For the usual reasons. And because I suffer from writer’s block in stuff that actually pays me (not this shit). I have half a dozen articles that I started and go nowhere. I want to keep it simple. Start with a simple article, send it, get it…
