Spring for Haircuts
I had been letting my hair grow out for over a year and a half and I needed a change. I needed a few pictures to send to a hair-stylist friend for advice and they also turned out to be a some nice pictures to mark that place in time, May '08 (photos taken by Dan Clark):
Then I got my hair cut in early June and went to lunch with the lovely Amy Shepard, who agreed to take some pictures for and of me:






Then including the lovely and talented Amy (and my glasses):
Coachella '08
April 27-29, 2007: The Coachella Festival in Indio, CA. Good times.
The Coachella Four, in a picture taken by... I have no idea who. Vanessa, Mar, Andrew, Jerry:


Very expensive pizza, very expensive beer:
The few pictures I took of the performers didn't come out well. I was generally just testing the limits of my camera's zoom feature to see if I could get a better view of the bands with female singers but it didn't turn out well. Trying to get a picture of an off-stage clock to see what time it was since my phone died didn't work either. There is this one picture of Jenny from Rilo Kiley that turned out decently well:
This is kind of an inside joke with me and someone else. But wouldn't this be delicious?:

Josh Bachelor Party '08
February 16, 2007: Josh was getting married and I was the best man so it was up to me to throw a party. The pictures pretty much tell the story. It was the conventional bachelor party, with blindfolds and a confused groom and all that. Not pictured:
1. The go-karting, since it wouldn't be advisable to have a camera while riding those karts.
2. Inside the car, because it's never as much fun to take pictures of people riding in cars as you want it to be.
3. The nudie-bar we ended up at, because apparently strippers are self-conscious and don't want their pictures taken.
Josh, the groom:


Actually a different picture than the one before:
Matt, Mar, Brian, Josh, Bryan:
Josh's legs, for some reason:
There was a carousel on the way to dinner and Josh was still blindfolded so for some reason it seemed funny to take him on it when he couldn't see anything:


Brian presumably has the other side of this picture but he never got it to me:




At dinner, just a few hours before seeing girls with big, fake boobs:

1. The go-karting, since it wouldn't be advisable to have a camera while riding those karts.

Birthday '08
I had my usual huge birthday party, and even split it the Vanessa (whose birthday is a week before mine), but somehow I came away with no pictures except for the ones on my camera, and even those number dreadfully few. I don't even remember if anyone was even taking pictures that night. But I have my memories and I know it was a good time so that's what's important. But I need to make sure I get some pictures next year. Here's what I had.
Vanessa, Mar, Ed, Andrew, Brian (at the restaurant before the party):
The only record of a party having taken place:

Julie & Kevin's Wedding
September 7, 2007: I've known Julie for over 12 years and she's been with Kevin for forever and they decided to finally tie the knot. Not only did I not need a date because I was a date but I was also the date of two lovely, young women. It worked out well:
Noa & Mar:
Mar & Chrissy:
Julie & Kevin:
This cup was just sitting there. For some reason I thought it would make for an interesting picture. Yeah, we were drinking:
