As I look back at the last 10 days worth of self portraits, one thing is painfully obvious to me: I need a haircut.

"Watchful"

"Celebrating"

Taken during my birthday party with Megan's family. Our birthday party, actually. Since our birthdays are so close, we share a party.

"Tired"

"Self Portrait Fail"

I'm not sure how I took half a dozen portraits without getting my face in focus. It's hard to tell on the lcd screen, I guess. So here's a picture of my collar. (Just another reminder of why I like being on the other side of the camera…)

"What seems to be the problem here?"

I was thinking something along the line of the guy who looks down the hose, and the prankster un-kinks it, sending a rush of water into his unsuspecting eye.

"Stupid Cat"

…pulled down my background just to lay on it.

"Hello Again"

"3 Generations"

My Dad, my Son, and myself. Dad came up to take me to a Phillies game for my birthday. They lost, but it was fun to go and we had a great day out. A net positive, for sure.

"Up Past Bedtime"

Up past my bed time, I'm getting a little loopy. I ended up only taking pictures of stupid faces, and this ended up being one of the sanest.

"This is not a Photoshop"

Nope, I just let my tiny clone that I keep inside my phone out for an hour or two every night to keep him from getting cabin fever, and decided to take his picture tonight.

"Happy Birthday to me!"

So today I'm 27. I had a pretty laid back birthday… I picked dinner (tacos!), and had some pie (peanut butter!).

One of my favorite gifts this year has to be my new Skullcandy Full Metal Jacket iPhone headphones. I wear headphones all the time (train, walking, working, yard work, etc) and I am pretty rough on them to begin with, so the extra durability is awesome; then toss in better sound quality and some moderate noise cancellation, and you've got yourself a winner. At almost $80 for headphones, though, I probably wouldn't have bought them for myself for a long time.

As Megan said, "That's what birthdays are for!"
