Young Republican Thursday

img_0494

Why wear a suit? Fancied wearing a suit.
Apparently I look very “Young Republican”.

Went down to the bar today and spent the budget I had put aside for a carpentry project. Bad mad carpenter. Next week – I’ll do something.

Scouts honour.
…Was never in the scouts though.

Wednesday?

And today, a different part of my face.

….What? It’s a boring week.

Monday Morning

My sleep pattern is all over the place. I’m having trouble remembering which is am and which is pm at the moment. However, a picture for you.

Reshaved my head and took off the mustache. It was irritating, and brushing crumbs all over the place. Any thoughts on how I look for my possible part in the prison break show I mentioned on Wednesday? Anybody? This thing is still broadcasting right?

I look good while smoking…

Don’t you think? Running really low at this point. In fact, I’ve rolled pipe tobacco into a cigarette and we’ve been smoking it all night. It’s surprising smooth for being 10-20 year old tobacco. Desperate times lads.

Google employee

Hey there guys. Google gave me a 100 euro voucher for free advertising with them. I use analytics, adsense, their search engine, their email service… lots of stuff.

And they sent me an email today, for 100 euros. Must be for all the traffic that’s coming to the site, and all the products I’m using. Like a loyalty voucher. Thanks guys, you got me some free advertising. It’s just like those links you see to the right of this page, and the bottom of this page. They are sponsors of The Mad Carpenter and when you click those links you’re helping me out, and it doesn’t cost you a single cent.

Thanks for all he traffic guys, and thank you google for the free money.

Yet another Thursday

You know, I was trying to fish something out of my teeth before I took the picture and the camera went off. I decided to put it up because this has sort of become mostly about the 365 project, and I’m trying to give you a glimpse into every aspect of my life.

So here’s a picture of me, trying to get a chunk of sandwich out of my teeth with my tongue. Enjoy!

Audition Wednesday

Hello, hello, hello and welcome to the mad carpenter.

There’s big plans in the works for the near future, including branded clothing, custom coffins and even an advertising campaign BUT…

Today we talk about something else. And the thing we talk about today is the media career of The Mad Carpenter. I went out for an audition today, to play the role of an extra in a TG4 production called Ealu II. The information I got about the gig, both from Mema who found the announcement in the paper (Thanks again Mema) and from the staff at the audition, Including the director, is that it’s about famous Irish prison breaks.

We went in in groups, chatted a bit about our experience in media/acting filled out the usual forms. Now answer me honestly here people – Do I look like the sort of guy that would be in prison in the 20’s or the 40’s in Ireland?

Thought you’d say that.

Sunrise Tuesday

img_0476

Just a little insight into my sleeping pattern here, that’s sunrise and not sunset. And no, I did not take this picture as soon as I woke up. Took it shortly before bed in fact. It’s ridiculous, and very inefficient, however, I have a lot of time in the day that’s my own, seeing as I’m unemployed and everything. And all the coolest people are up at night. And internet time zones and everything… It’s stressful being unemployed.
