All in All an Incredible Day!

Who watched Obama speak tonight? Anyone? It looked like Pelosi was chewing her tongue off and like Biden sat on his testicles a few times during some of those standing O's. Boxer Briefs man, BRIEFS! Well... Obama always shines when he speaks, but he didn't say anything mind blowing. I wish they would televise them going line by line and cutting wasteful spending. That would be television worth watching. AND can I just ask in the future to stop the cutaways to McCain, let that old piece of shit just stew in his shame already. AND did anyone else think Bobby Jindal sounded like the cartoon DNA strand from Jurassic Park? I have no chest pounding thoughts or inspiration from tonight. Its funny all of the talk of "hope" and still I just keep HOPING this guy isn't just another liar.

I said this on twitter but made myself laugh while I was waiting for the applause to die down, I must have still had the Oscars in my ears because all I could imagine was President Obama opening his speech by saying: "And the award goes to Slumdog Millionaire"

A few of you have asked me: "Where the Eff has The Littlest Buddy been? So today I bribed him with Girl Scout Cookies to hold still for a quick photo shoot. He held still for about 15-20 seconds. And refused to keep his tongue in his mouth unless he was belly laughing. Which I love when he does. When I feel like shit that kids laugh will cure anything. He had an awesome day and a ton of fun with Cole, he is soaking in all the solo Mommy time he can. Taking these shots today I realized how much I missed doing shoots with him. So I am going to try and get back on the Thursday shoots. How does that sound?

I said: "Look Serious" He said: "Mama"



Four Year Olds think EVERYTHING is funny, They just want you to read




AND THEN! Tonight Cole and I got all jump and down excited when I got a twitter from Lisa over at American Apparel who put up some of the Photos I've been taking of Cole on the American Apparel blog. Take a look: THE DAILY UPDATE- AMERICAN APPAREL So there she was my beautiful wife on the AA site hanging with Diane Lane and Marc Jacobs. She is so cool :) But seriously it was so freaking awesome for them to link to the blog. I was thrilled. Cole totally texted her buddies at the salon and especially to this lady for loaning her some of the Apparel. The good news was the little ray of sunshine I needed from a solid month of no leads and rejection on the photography job front. AND THEN!!! She wrote back and said they wanted to send us some clothes so we can keep doing the shoots!!! So as soon as this posts Cole and I are going to do a little looking around over at The Online Store and pick out a few things. How awesome is that?! I feel like King Shit of Fuck Mountain right now.

Sandi February 24, 2009 11:13 PM  

I wish you were here in CA. I would hire you pronto. I need a photo shoot for all 14 kids. You and Cole up for a vacation?

Steam Me Up, Kid February 24, 2009 11:14 PM  

OK, first...congratulations. That is HUGE. Seriously.

And second...I'm squinting really hard because I refuse to wear my glasses, but is LB reading The Communist Manifesto? Hmmm....

The Panic Room February 24, 2009 11:17 PM  

@ Sandi - When do we leave :)

@ Maggie - Aww that is sweet to say. You notice I keep the pics of myself to a min around here.

The Panic Room February 24, 2009 11:18 PM  

@ Steam- I wouldn't exactly say he is "reading" it. THAT would be incredible.

mander! February 24, 2009 11:27 PM  

Totally made me smile :o) All of it. Nice work.

SSP February 24, 2009 11:28 PM  

so incredibly cool about your photos, bet you get lots and lots of visitors here! I agree with your comments about Obama's address. I would be happy if they never shows john mccain on camera again. He lost, get over it, he will not "take over" if Obama "screws up." I thought pelosi had a bug up her butt, or an itch she couldn't quite reach - she jumped up so quick each time - boing!

bernthis February 24, 2009 11:30 PM  

Yessss!!!!!!!! It makes me believe that miracles can happen, really! Mazel Tov!

The Panic Room February 24, 2009 11:31 PM  

@ SSP - Feminine itch

@ Mander - Pretty freaking cool. All of it. Your last blog post about your roommate was hysterical by the way.

Carrie February 24, 2009 11:36 PM  

Oh my gosh, so freakin awesome. Btw, as you know, I'm new here so I just have to say. I adore your labels, best i've seen yet!

Oh, and thank you for the tip on your My Life as a Job posts, went back and read them last night and I was enthralled...I mean holy shit, them are some experiences yo.

Looking forward to going back and reading some other stuff too. :)

Lee of MWOB February 24, 2009 11:50 PM  

Yeah - right on Ryan - sounds like an incredible day being King of your Mountain is just what you needed right about now!!

And yeah I just got done watching the Obama spiel and I'm with you overall. I was hoping for some SPECIFICS not just a bunch of the same. Great speaker as always but what gives? I heard nothing NEW! So I'm hoping for the same kind of hope you're hoping for....

And the pics of the little man are delish....he's so eatable....

:-)

Twenty Four At Heart February 24, 2009 11:53 PM  

I don't know how I found you? Maybe thru Sandi? I live in the OC. Anyway ... does jimbo (sic) think we are all two and idiots? He was sooooooo condescending. And your little boy is adorable. And really - that's your wife? She's beautiful!
Love your blog!

Klariza G February 24, 2009 11:57 PM  

Congrats on the AA thing. That's how i found your blog which im happy about cuz i couldn't stop reading for a good hour or two <33

Rachel Tamed February 25, 2009 12:17 AM  

I feel strangely as though Pelosi actually had a stroke right after the speech and we just have not heard about it yet. If that is not the case, before the next presidential address, I think she should be required to get some goddamn pompoms.

Bobby Jindal scared the bejesus out of me. Only because I read all this hype today about how he is the hope of the partei. His politics combined with that monotone Mr. Rogers voice actually almost made me throw up. How can you sound like Mr. Rogers and support chemical castration? How?

Cole is so beautiful - you are a lucky man to turn such a lovely woman into your babymaker - hot babymaker even!

Joanie February 25, 2009 12:29 AM  

Wow!! that's terrific!!!

LB is a cutie!! and Cole gets more beautiful each week.

Captain Dumbass February 25, 2009 12:50 AM  

So who was making him laugh, Marx or Engels? Seriously, I hate your photographic talents. Joking. Mostly.

That is fucking awesome with AA.

As for Obama, how is it that he can throw down an hour long speech but get him in a press conference and he sounds like a junior congressman? I don't get it.

Sticky (not too) February 25, 2009 1:06 AM  

How wonderful for all of you!
Congrats!!

wendy February 25, 2009 1:17 AM  

You are the king shit of fuck mountain. You just now realizing that? Cole knows. LB too. And all the rest of us who adore you enough to stop by.

Jules February 25, 2009 6:23 AM  

You have such a cute family! And if Jindal is the rising star of the Republican party, Ouch! He sounded like an infomericial at 3 a.m. Or like the 700 Club. It was BAD!
And Hubby always used to complain about having to watch the President walk in, until this year. Last night he said, "Oh this is why we watch the President walk in." Then he started clapping.
Nancy was so giddy she could hardly contain herself. It was funny. Ahhhhhhhh......I feel so happy and refreshed today! Love you Obama!

Marinka February 25, 2009 7:27 AM  

Why is your adorable son reading The Communist Manifesto?

The Panic Room February 25, 2009 7:35 AM  

@ Carrie - Oh cool you read "My Life As a Job" they took me so long to write I am thrilled whenever anyone looks at them. So thank you :)

@ Lee- I KNOW right... specifics, PLEASE

@ Twenty-Four - Glad you found me, thanks Sandi

@ Klariza - An hour or two?! Wow. So you must be all cut up now. That's incredible. Thanks for reading.

@ Rachel - your posts last night were right on and hilarious.

@ Joanie - :)

@ Capt- Well... people ask such stupid questions it takes him more time to fight off snarky retorts and eye rolls so it slows his response time down. When he says "UHHH" he is actually saying "FUCK YOU" on the inside.

@ Sticky- I agree, it was wonderful. We both woke up happy.

@ Wendy - I would NEVER assume ANYONE adores me. I'm way too unlikable for "adore"

@ Jules - refreshed to watch Wall Street dive and dive. Hope that HOPE injection he gave America will do the trick for a few days. People are freaking out.

The Panic Room February 25, 2009 7:39 AM  

@ Marinka - Well a couple of corrections.

He is my Stepson :) AND as I said before, he isn't exactly reading it. He was holding it, and I was making him laugh his A off.

Just a little pic that says: 4 yr olds think EVERYTHING is funny.

Petra a.k.a The Wise (*Young*) Mommy February 25, 2009 8:51 AM  

OMG, I am so happy for you!!! It's about fucking time some good shit happened to you, my man. Awesome about the AA blog and the free clothes AND linking to your blog!

The Little Buddy is SO cute, I want to eat him. I love his little glasses!

I was actually pretty impressed with Obama's speech; I listened to every word and although there was a lot of extraneous "inspiration" speak and way too many standing O's, I loved the overall message. CUT THE SPENDING, BE ACCOUNTABLE and REFORM ALREADY!!! Amen fuckers.

I agree with the shots of McCain though. Dude, just go away.

Deb February 25, 2009 9:13 AM  

Ok, that Republican dude scared me. He was like some kind of evil bedtime story reader.

I liked Obama's speech, and I especially loved it when they cut to McCain, who looked like a doofus.

Marie-Ève February 25, 2009 10:13 AM  

That's just fantastic!

And are you making the LB a commie? LOL

Mama Dawg February 25, 2009 10:15 AM  

You rock. Seriously, you rock.

And he is still the cutest thing ever. I love belly laughs.

Amber February 25, 2009 10:52 AM  

Congrats...cole really should be a model. maybe she can do runway mom's after she gives birth.

Not The Rockefellers February 25, 2009 10:59 AM  

I am so excited for you guys! I, too, was sending love out in to the universe so that you kids would catch a break.

As always I am routing for you!

God Bless.

Peace -Rene

Cole looks fabulous but I do miss her hilarious pouty face/tantrum from 20 weeks.

It cracked me up everytime.

Tenakim February 25, 2009 11:14 AM  

It's so amazing that Cole is on the AA website- That's where she belongs- looks great!

Lesha February 25, 2009 11:38 AM  

I would absolutely watch televised line by line spending cut broadcasts. I was actually thinking something similar while watching last night.

And congrats on the good fortune for you and Cole from AA.

And Little Buddy is a doll. Great pictures.

Lawton February 25, 2009 11:59 AM  

You are so rad. Way to bring it home!

Miss Grace February 25, 2009 12:08 PM  

Awesomeness on the AA blog!!

And I've been missing LB, glad to see him back and adorable as always.

Sunny February 25, 2009 12:25 PM  

Karl Marx at this age? That's hilarious.

Mrs. K February 25, 2009 1:12 PM  

that is awesome news! who knows? aside from getting you a gig, It may also get Cole a modeling job! :)

Kristy - Where's My Damn Answer February 25, 2009 1:52 PM  

That's AWESOME. I dig each picture you put up already and I'm SO glad that they're using them. Can't wait to see what you guys pick out.

You never know what relationships will form in the world of blogging :-D

Can't wait to see what you come up with for our guest spot.

Pamela February 25, 2009 2:24 PM

nonnasnonsense February 25, 2009 2:44 PM  

i love that second shot of little buddy! he is so adorable and happy! big congrats on the AA update page. that is so cool that you're getting some freebies out of them. heck they outta be paying cole for modeling and you for shooting!

The Panic Room February 25, 2009 3:03 PM  

@ Nonna - Thank you for the good words. As far as AA they are awesome for the link and the clothes offer. They shouldn't HAVE to pay every A-hole that takes pictures without them asking :) It is something cool Cole and I were doing and we are super happy with what happened!

@ Pamela - Smarmy is such an appropriate word for him.

@ Kristy- thanks for the reminder on that post. Damn!

@ Mrs. K- haha she doesn't want a model job, but has had fun letting me take her picture.

@ Sunny - He got bored and threw the book down 10 seconds into the shoot.

@ Miss Grace- He will be around. He is in the mood for the camera again

@Lawt- you are the best!

@ Lesha - Seriously! How amazing would that be to watch that process. The claws out.

@ Tenakim - She does look pretty comfortable on that site :)

@ Rene Thank you for sending love into the universe for us. And yeah the week 20 is going to be hard to top.

@Amber - I think Cole is going to retire after the baby comes

@ Mama- I want to bottle up his belly laughs and keep them in my pocket for bad days

@Marie - I love that word "commie"

@ Deb - Don't be frightened by Republicans... they are harmless

@ Petra - Amen Fuckers!

CaJoh February 25, 2009 3:16 PM  

Congratulations on your mention in American Apparel. I think the second photo is funnier in that he looks like he's enjoying the book WAY too much.

jlz February 25, 2009 3:18 PM  

so fuckin' rad!! good for you and lovely cole - Ain't nothing gonna break my stride- Nobody's gonna slow me down, oh no- I've got to keep on moving....

Your Ill-fitting Overcoat February 25, 2009 4:01 PM

Vodka Mom February 25, 2009 4:03 PM  

Hey King Shit!! Your little prince fuckalot is too Goddamm adorable!!!!!!!!

(isn't it nice when something good happens for a change???)

Scary Mommy February 25, 2009 4:50 PM  

That is so cool!!! She is totally rocking those clothes-- I bet they see a rise in sales due to her, make her a spokeswoman and you a photographer and next thing you know, you're all rich and famous and shit.

Michelle February 25, 2009 7:28 PM  

That fucking rocks dude!!!

Your stepson is all kinds of adorable. I think this may be the first time i saw what he looks like. I know, my bad!!!

Also, am I the ONLY fool who thought that short woman was actually a woman???? She is a freaking 8th grader!!! Please tell me i am not the only one who thought that!!!!!

:O)

Kern February 26, 2009 12:21 AM  

Aw, how adorable. Glad you have some good news in your pocket. :) Keep chugging! PS Those dimples are to die for!!

Krystal February 26, 2009 10:03 AM  

okay, all I gotta say is that you are one lucky man to have sucha gorgeous wife and adorable Littlest Buddy. Didn't i say that things were going to get better - even just the tiniest things can make your life worth every second of living. It seems as if you have found that space in the universe and honey, I am glad for you!

True Blue Texan February 26, 2009 11:28 AM  

Congratulations on the AA gig! Way to go!

Janna Bee February 26, 2009 5:41 PM  

Adorable photos, and congratulations on the AA link! Checking it out now!

Good-Grace March 25, 2009 8:43 PM  

AWEsome! Congratulations to both of you on the AA highlight!!

And LB is so dang adorable. You're right... they do just want you to read, don't they? By the way - the "SkippyJon Jones" books are *great*!! I don't mind reading them over and over. And if you can find a copy with the author reading the story on CD - it's even MORE hilarious b/c she does an accent. Anyway... I've worked her technique into my delivery -and it's always a sure fire hit!
