Photoboof’n with Shameless.

This is either what a “bird sanct” is or what happens when you buy too little red paint.

I looooove this grill!!

If you’re going to have the most simple wallet ever, these blue rubber bands wrapped around asparagus as the best ones to use. Perfect thickness and tension. Plus, the last forever. It’s my wallet of choice.

It’s hard to tell this is a paper towel holder, isn’t it?

Another view of my parking garage…

SF celebrates Valentine’s Day by having hundreds of people converge and whack each other with pillows. This is my 2012 crew.

My bed is the most comfortable place in the whole world. Yep.

My favorite guilty pleasure is having a cocktail within reach while in the shower. This certainly isn’t a morning ritual or something applicable to school days, but if I’m bathing in the evening then this is a decadent way to go.

However, I don’t recommend using glass, and especially not wine glasses with stems. Against any better judgement I balanced one on top of the shower ledge and knocked it off while reaching for the shampoo. But somehow it all dropped directly into the sink (also pictured, ahem), swooshed up into the air and dropped right back into it – containing 99% of the mess. Pretty cool, huh? I say it was worth it for the photo.

As seen around the office.

This is what my desk far too regularly looks like…

Sometimes the fog from this view is just stunning. Is there an acronym for when you literally say “whoa!” out loud?

Another view of the workplace. Yeah, I’m here a lot.

Seen in some unknown bathroom around SF. That’s what I get for updating this six weeks after I took the photo…

I don’t think these are actually hotlinks, but I’m calling them that anyway.

If you have a car in SF, sooner or later you’ll probably get towed. Especially if you even slightly block the driveway of my neighbors. Jerks.

Optical illusion or computer transfer? You decide.

If you’re in the parking garage across the street from work and need help, look for this.

My daily companion.

I present to you: Chef Ken.

A moment of self-reflection.

See a larger version here.

In the woods.

If you have to work, this sure isn’t a bad place to do it from.

This was my first attempt. See Feb 6 for the better shot.

It’s a pink Christmas all year long, I suppose, around my desk. Ho ho ho…

If you get towed in front of this door, you are truly an idiot.

This sounds terrible to me…

Tailgating at the site of what may be the last NFC Chanmpionship game ever played at Candlestick Park. Unfortunately, the 49ers lost in overtime to the NY Giants.

While the 49ers were in the NFL playoffs, City Hall was lit up in their colors. I definitely wasn’t the only guy with a camera out there on this night.

I am thankful that there are no shortages of awesome photo opportunities around my lunch table.

I love 24th Street in the Mission, and especially in the rain.

The SF bay.

Probably not the best place to be this time of night…

Shamelessly.

TTT – one of the only guys I know looks even cooler with a black eye.

The title of this came largely from having a certain Guns N’ Roses song bouncing around in my head. Can you name which one?

One of the various projects I’ve continually dabbled in over the last few years involves photographing “unintentional” letters. For example, this one could be a “J”. I like spelling out words with photos, mostly because my friends and family are very much into it.

Getting it done in the kitchen.

No one can say that the contents of my desk drawer lack color. Yep, no one.

The food at my office is always so pretty!

The command center of mindlessness.

Heading back from Mexico, repacking the truck for the final time of the trip.

My special friend giving out hugs during 2012′s first light.

To do it over again with intention I might have instead made this daily photo of 2011′s final sunset. However, it’s probably more appropriate that I’m using one I just happened to take without even thinking of this project. And it looks pretty cool (but, since it’s Che, how could it not?)

On the second to last day of the year I took just one photo. When I get coins with my change I almost always put them directly in this slot in the door of my truck to feed SF’s exceedingly hungry parking meters.

The cutest puppy I’d seen all day (ok, it was also the only one).

Just after midnight (which is great since I didn’t have any other photos that I was whatsoever impressed with on this day) in the Palm Springs hotel with Luke on the way to Mexico.

On the way to Mexico.

Seen in the yard next door.

On the way to holiday party #2 of the day, Luke being Luke.

I love my Christmas tree – even if I can only see it from my bed (also pictured, slightly) because it’s not actually in my house and only available when the neighbors across the street don’t have their curtains drawn.

Seeking out the beauty (and symmetry, of course) in the things we see all the time.

The sun rising over SF.

I know i’m REALLY far behind (over a month!) on catching up this daily blog up, but it’ll be current soon. I’ve been steadily taking photos every day and sharing much of it immediately on Instagram (you can find me by my username Nomadjim) but I haven’t spent much time doing the final editing and posting here. And now I’m about to leave on a technology break until after the new year. When I come back, I expect to be insanely busy with work for the first week… Anyway, if anyone is reading this and interested, please let me know. The encouragement will probably help speed this along

The first iteration of the “Inspiration Kiosk” at my office in SF.

Last seen at a holiday party in the SF bay area, of course.

My only regret is that I wasn’t closer to this guy before snapping the photo.

From the inside looking out.

I’d love to be able to tell how many photos I’ve taken either in my car or waiting for this particular stoplight in front of me (unseen here, of course) to turn green.

At the coolest pool hall in SF with the boys (yes, that’s Camtastic taking his shot in my shot).

I captured this sparkler action with my iPhone. I love this camera!

LED Christmas lights are fun because a) they use ~85% less electricity and b) their refresh rate is noticably slower than what your brain processes. Move your hands in front of a strand while in a dark room and see what I mean.

I have at least 3 water bottles that I use almost every day. One stays at my office (with two others of a different style that I rarely use) and makes frequent trips to the gym with me, another commutes between home and the office (and just about any out-of-the-country trip as well), and the one pictured here sits next to my bed. I believe the red on the other side of it is how it sees my couch.

I love the attention to detail that this guy is putting into cleaning his car, even though one of the panels it a totally different color.

My favorite event of the year in SF is absolutely SantaCon. If you don’t know what it is, look it up and I’ll see you there in December!

Using my iPhone AND my Canon for a moment of self-reflection.

George keeping it cool at work.

I’ve been actively taking more photos of my workmates lately. Hope you enjoy!

Andy getting comfy at work.

On the way into Cirque du Soleil.

My bedside companion.

Figuring it all out – one piece at a time.

I love my city, I love my view.

Trust me, this team sucks.

My just about any standard one would consider, I somehow end up taking an exceptionally high number of photos of Ken sitting down at a table preparing his dinner plans. Maybe I’ll one day compile a whole collection of them. Hmm.

Underground at the Anchor Steam Brewery in SF.

All quiet at the Dallas Love airport.

At the smallest airport bar I ever could have imagined existed in an airport in Dallas, where $20 bills started to look interesting.

This stapler and I share the same request.

I didn’t have to go out of my way to take small, western town-like photos while I was in a small, western town in Texas. I did have a new iPhone with a MUCH better camera than my previous one so you might notice that many of my daily photos are now taken with it.

Playing games with the family.

Ah, Texas. I love this windmill (and take photos of it at least once each year).

The back door of one of my dad’s houses in Texas.

The new “bridge to nowhere” in Dallas.

Dallas in December.

My daily companion.

Inside DIA (Denver airport) during a layover. Again, I love the camera on the latest iPhone. I’m using my DSLR less and less and it’s freeing not to carry it around all the time.

Mr Tastic doing a little surfing on my couch.

(shot with my iPhone 4S – I love the camera on it!)

I love my city.

Camtastic.

…then you should probably stop coming back. As you can tell, I quite enjoy photographing him

I have no memory of photo being taken…

If you don’t know the song by the same name from the Sneaker Pimps you’re missing out.
