And you’re ready to crash by 7:30. Was pretty good though: last splash of tequila, dark rum, triple sec, clementine juice & Fresca.

I’m getting old, OPPO.

I’m going to the eye doctor on Monday. I’m also getting old...

It’s a bitch. But you’re only as old as you act, right? Right??

I may or may not be on that trajectory tonight. Barely 6p in LA and I’ve polished off a bit of silver 100% agave tequila. Now to begin some E30 M3 lightpaint edits...

I wish that were true. I have a feeling I’m walking out of there with old people glasses...

Can’t wait to see them! My tablespoon of tequila was the same good stuff - Camarena, to be precise.

Probably should have just had it neat instead of putting it into my motley mix - ha!

Bifocals? Oh man, not fun. I had LASIK 10+ years ago and still going strong, but surely reading glasses are in my future at some point.

Yeah....tequila and rum?!? You’re a madman. My tequila is sadly some cheap stuff, but I do also have a second bottle in the freezer that has 3 chopped up jalapenos infused into it.

It is hellishly spicy.

I meant the reading glasses. I’ve had 20/20 or better vision up until a few months ago. Things are looking a little blurry these days...

Consider yourself fortunate! I’ve had some kind of correction since like 4th grade.

Sounds pretty tasty - might have to try that.

If you do it, filter out the seeds. Apparently those are what give it the really searing heat. I’ve been told it’s still spicy but tastier with just the jalapeno meats.

Haha - not a bad thing.

I just hit 38 in January, so it’s time for all my systems to start failing, I guess...

I’m exactly one year ahead of you. Not giving up yet! =)

Cool - thanks for the tip.

How’s the Honda gig going?

WilliamsSW > Jonathan Harper

Yep- the seeds and the white inner rind hold most of the heat—- remove that and it’ll be a lot more mellow

It’s good! Different in that everything is do there is not shareable. But it’s good. I’m still finding time to do shoots on the side. E30 M3 night shots last week, E28 M5 shots tomorrow evening. I’m enjoying it.

Reading glasses aren’t fun- I feel like an old fart with them, but can’t read a damn thing without them.

Had Lasik some years ago and my distance vision is perfect, but up close is terrible-

That’s what I just did with my first margarita. I should’ve drank some scotch first but no I wanted just one margarita first. No scotch for me tonight.

Give it a couple hours - haha!

We shall see. I have to get up early tomorrow to drive an hour forty to the nearest Hollister so the wife can return some stuff and catch Wonder Woman before heading back before the doggy sitter needs to be relieved.

Most likely I’ll just stick to margaritas or switch to Sprite and blueberry Stoli. If you haven’t tried that, you should! It’s nice and different. Raspberry Stoli works with Sprite as well.

I found some honey Stoli and I want to find something to drink it with.

Nice. Glad it’s good. So all your work is just used for Honda marketing, etc. with no attribution, or it’s future release stuff? Will you get to add it to your portfolio at some point in the future? Great you still have time for freelance work as well.

Sounds tasty. I’m shooting for sleeping in tomorrow, but the kids may have other plans!

Unlikely I’ll ever get to add any of it to my portfolio. Most of what I’m shooting is top secret. Maybe in five years some of my shots will be used by some publication when they’re made public but it won’t be attributed. I don’t mind it though I’m learning lots of new stuff and the company seems to be really good.

Very cool! Hope it’s a long, fruitful relationship.
