I used to take a photo everyday.

I don’t do that any more. Now I just make sure I photograph the more interesting moments of my week, so this blog has moved. If you want to keep seeing my photos, you can check here…

SATURDAY, MAY 14TH, 2011

This afternoon, I, along with all the other groomsmen, met Josh at Men’s Wearhouse to get fitted for the tuxes we’ll be wearing in his wedding.

SUNDAY, MAY 15TH, 2011

With so many kids bringing back their prom tuxes today, we basically sat outside Geno’s all afternoon and tossed the bags into the back of a moving truck as they came in. Everything is bar coded so it can be checked in at the warehouse.  We’re really just the middle man, I guess.

MONDAY, MAY 16TH, 2011

Hank and Tiffany decorating the Krispy Kreme lobby with balloons…which is apparently something we do now.

TUESDAY, MAY 17TH, 2011

“Made In The U.S.A.” fail.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 18TH, 2011

Today, at Krispy Kreme, I helped Jeremy with load out. Here, we unload the deli carts from the trucks so we can fill them with doughnuts.

THURSDAY, MAY 19TH, 2011

Geno brought in a new shipment of watches for us to sale at the store today. All the girls “oh”ed and “ah”ed over them all afternoon.

FRIDAY, MAY 20TH, 2011

One of my favorite past times is using my camera to zoom in on people’s faces and wait for the perfect shot. This shot of Kami is pure comedy gold.

MONDAY, MAY 9TH, 2011

Cary Anne recently landed a part time job restocking shelves at the public library. Here she is hard at work.

TUESDAY, MAY 10TH, 2011

Steak and potatoes, the dinner of kings.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 11TH, 2011

Olivia, keeping things clean in front of Geno’s.

THURSDAY, MAY 12TH, 2011

Today, in front of Krispy Kreme, someone had to be cut out of their car with the jaws of life. There’s a fat joke in there somewhere.

FRIDAY, MAY 13TH, 2011

With 10 proms on the calendar for tomorrow, today was an extremely busy day at Geno’s. Luckily, we brought in a entire smorgasbord (that’s right, smorgasbord) of food to help us get through.

Holy Update, Batman! Do People Still Read This Blog?

SUNDAY, MAY 1ST, 2011

Tonight was the last night CA’s family was in town so we met up with my family for dinner after church.

MONDAY, MAY 2ND, 2011

Another Monday night at the Playhouse. Another drive through the rain.

TUESDAY, MAY 3RD, 2011

Over the weekend, US forces finally found and assassinated bin Laden. As you can imagine, the news coverage has been thorough.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 4TH, 2011

This friendly cat belongs to our neighbors. But she’s an outdoor cat, so she seems to spend most of her time hanging out on the front stoop waiting for food or to be petted.

THURSDAY, MAY 5TH, 2011

Tonight, Southland invited everyone out to the Lexington Mall location. Once there, everyone was given a page out of the Bible and asked to read it then pray over the future site of our new campus.  I think I heard that, as a church, we ended up reading through the Bible over 3 times.

FRIDAY, MAY 6TH, 2011

Shells galore at Krispy Kreme today. This afternoon, I spent a couple of hours sealing boxes of donuts with freshness stickers and organizing them into piles.

SATURDAY, MAY 7TH, 2011

I gotta hand it to Clayton. Even though he’s an assistant manager, he’s still willing to do the dirty jobs…like unclogging the urinal.

SUNDAY, MAY 8TH, 2011

At a recent Krispy Kreme AGM conference, Clayton discovered that he loves karaoke. So today, after Wing Feast, a bunch of us went to a karaoke bar where we made fools of ourselves.

If you wanna see just how bad it was, watch this video…

SUNDAY, APRIL 24TH, 2010

Today, Cary Anne and I spent part of our afternoon checking out the pond baptisms at Southland.

After the pond, we headed to the Leach’s house for a family Easter dinner. Here, Cary Anne cuts the carrot cake she baked.

MONDAY, APRIL 25TH, 2011

Another Monday evening drive to Cincinnati for improv class…

TUESDAY, APRIL 26TH, 2011

Tonight, Cary Anne and I grabbed dinner at Jimmy John’s. When we ordered, the guy told us they were out of fries, yet we noticed this large shelf of potatoes right next to the fryer. I think the guy was confused about where french fries come from.

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 27TH, 2011

Today, a couple came into Geno’s wanting to change the color of the guy’s prom tux. They thought the pink they chose (represented by the pocket square) didn’t match the pink of the girl’s dress (that scrap on top of the pocket square). They were literally the exact same color, and I had to spend 20 minutes explaining that to them.

THURSDAY, APRIL 28TH, 2011

Tonight Cary Anne and I headed down to Cumberland to see the spring production of Stagefest. We went largely because Shana was directing a one act play that I had written, but it was also a great opportunity just to see some old friends.

Of course, no trip to Williamsburg is complete without a late night snack at Huddle House. Doesn’t Red look thrilled?

FRIDAY, APRIL 29TH, 2011

Everyday, when we close at Geno’s, we have to print off a details report, which logs every transaction from that day. Now that we’re right in the thick of prom season, the report is usually about 4 feet long.

SATURDAY, APRIL 30TH, 2011

Chris and Hannah were in town today for a family birthday party, so they came over this morning to hang out a little. Hannah was having a hard time multi-tasking on “Rock Band,” so as she played the drums, Chris offered to work the foot pedal for her so it would be one less thing she had to focus on…it didn’t help her performance much.

Cary Anne’s family also came to visit this weekend. After Mrs. C had such a great time at Jesus Golf when she visited in the fall, she wanted to share it with the rest of the family.

After dinner, Cary Anne wanted to make sure Marshall got to experience her new favorite frozen yogurt place, Orange Leaf.

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13TH, 2011

Jeremy, working on load out.

THURSDAY, APRIL 14TH, 2011

Today, Cary Anne and I went to fill out some paper work and pick up our Vespa. Don’t we look excited?

Here, Mike teaches Cary Anne how to drive our new scooter around the back parking lot of the Vespa dealership.

FRIDAY, APRIL 15TH, 2011

I drove the Vespa to work for the first time today, and Shelby and Jordan immediately ran out to the back parking lot to check it out. Chicks dig Vespas.

SATURDAY, APRIL 16TH, 2011

Apparently I was coordinating my shirt and tie with my new helmet today.

SUNDAY, APRIL 17TH, 2011

Tonight, Pops sang in the Easter Cantata at Rosemont so the whole family went to hear.

After church, Jon wanted to take the Vespa for a spin around the neighborhood. He was having so much fun it turned into more like 3 spins.

MONDAY, APRIL 18TH, 2011

Allison moved home to Cincy after graduating from UC, so tonight I got to have dinner with her before Improv class.

TUESDAY, APRIL 19TH, 2011

This has basically been the forecast for 3/4ths of the month of April.

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 20TH, 2011

I finally got some new work shoes for Krispy Kreme. As you can tell, my old ones were warped and falling apart.

THURSDAY, APRIL 21ST, 2011

Picked up a Vespa Lexington sticker today to add to the front of Cary Anne’s and my new ride. Looks pretty good to me.

FRIDAY, APRIL 22ND, 2011

This evening there was a severe tornado warning in Lexington. It got so dark and windy we locked the doors for about 30 minutes at Geno’s and took cover in the employee bathroom. Don’t we look comfy?

SATURDAY, APRIL 23RD, 2011

Today, I was trying to toss M&Ms into Cary Anne’s mouth from across the living room. She didn’t catch most of them, and 30 minutes or so later, when she got off the couch, she realized one of those missed M&Ms had found its way onto her back.

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 6TH, 2011

Sunset at our apartment complex.

THURSDAY, APRIL 7TH, 2011

Today, Cary Anne and I went and put a down payment on a Vespa we’ve been eyeing for a bit. As you can tell, I’m very excited.

FRIDAY, APRIL 8TH, 2011

It’s beginning to look a lot like prom season at Geno’s. Here’s a glimpse at our tux rentals for the upcoming weekend.

SATURDAY, APRIL 9TH, 2011

Along with our Vespa, we get one free helmet. So tonight we went to Walmart pick one out for Cary Anne since, you know, she needs to be safe, too. Doesn’t she look tough?

SUNDAY, APRIL 10TH, 2011

Jordan, hemming a jacket for a customer at Geno’s.

MONDAY, APRIL 11TH, 2011

Tonight, before improv class, I spent a little time wandering around Mt. Adams, the Cincinnati neighborhood where the Playhouse is located.

TUESDAY, APRIL 12TH, 2011

David, building a pyramid of donut boxes.

End of March, Start of April 2011

THURSDAY, MARCH 31ST, 2011

Exciting times in the back room at Geno’s.

FRIDAY, APRIL 1ST, 2011

What we do at Krispy Kreme when we don’t have any customers to serve: tag team a game on someone’s iPhone.

SATURDAY, APRIL 2ND, 2011

This weekend, Jenn came up from Cumberland to visit. I had to work quite a bit, but I did find some free time to spend with the girls.

SUNDAY, APRIL 3RD, 2011

Worship at 608.

MONDAY, APRIL 4TH, 2011

Recently, I signed up for a 7-week Improv course at the Cincinnati Playhouse. Tonight was the 1st class.

TUESDAY, APRIL 5TH, 2011

Open mic night at Comedy Off Broadway.

SUNDAY, MARCH 20TH, 2011

Cary Anne and Snuffaluffagus have a staring contest.

MONDAY, MARCH 21ST, 2011

Chelsea and Tiffany packing up donut holes.

TUESDAY, MARCH 22ND, 2011

Hey, want your kid to be good at beer pong before he goes off to college? Buy him this awesome new game!

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 23RD, 2011

A storm was moving in as we closed at Geno’s tonight.

THURSDAY, MARCH 24TH, 2011

We have a new baker we’re still training at Krsipy Kreme. Tonight, his donuts were coming out so large we couldn’t even fit 12 in a box. The customers weren’t complaining though.

FRIDAY, MARCH 25TH, 2011

Had to work again during UK’s second game in the NCAA tournament. Luckily, our manager at Krispy Kreme bought a new TV for the break room so we could all watch when there was down time.

SATURDAY, MARCH 26TH, 2011

Clayton, attempting to teach Tiffany to use the lift.

SUNDAY, MARCH 27TH, 2011

Tonight, UK played again, this time to see if they would earn a spot in the Final Four. As you can imagine, 608, a service that usually packs thousands of college kids, was virtually empty.

After UK won, and earned their way into the Final Four for the 1st time since 1998, the team flew back home here to Lexington. Jon and I joined thousands of fans out at the Bluegrass Airport to greet them. There was a lot of excitement.

MONDAY, MARCH 28TH 2011

The team finally arrived after midnight, and as they drove off through the crowd, Jorts stood at the front of one of the buses showing off the trophy.

TUESDAY, MARCH 29TH, 2011

Tonight, Cary Anne and I Skyped with Jenn while we ate dinner.

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 30TH, 2011

This afternoon, Cary Anne got all her hair chopped off. This is her new summer do. I asked her if she went in and asked for the female Justin Beiber…which was a mistake.

As a Valentine’s Day present last month, Cary Anne let me buy us tickets to go see an acoustic Dashboard Confessional show tonight in Cincinnati. It was a good time.

MONDAY, MARCH 14TH, 2011

For the 4th year in a row, I celebrated Pi Day with some Oreo Creme goodness.

I took these pictures at the beginning (and not at the end) of our bingeing so there’s no photographic evidence that Cary Anne and I ate far more pie  than 2 people should in a single sitting.

TUESDAY, MARCH 15TH, 2011

Today, I went to the mall and played around with the new iPad 2.

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 16TH, 2011

Tonight, Cary Anne and I went to my old high school, Dunbar, to see Becca playTracy in the school’s production of ‘Hairspray.’ It was a lot of fun.

THURSDAY, MARCH 17TH, 2011

UK played it’s first game of the NCAA tournament today. Shelby and I volunteered for sock pricing duty at Geno’s so we could sit at the back desk and “work” as we watched the game.

FRIDAY, MARCH 18TH, 2011

This is how we show our Kentucky pride at Krispy Kreme.

SATURDAY, MARCH 19TH, 2011

Tonight, I came home from work to find our apartment complex surrounded by fire trucks. At first, I was worried about Cary Anne, but when I finally made it to the apartment I learned she had no idea about the excitement going on outside. Apparently, someone in an apartment about two buildings away from ours left some paper trash near a heat source. That building was evacuated, but there was no serious damage or injuries.
