Every day for the past year I've been secretly auditioning to be a model. Not just any model. A Oiselle model. I've shown Sally my range of talent from day one.   Liiike foam roller air guitar. No bites! Clearly Sally needed more. So day after day I struck my sauciest poses.

The first shoot was early this summer. Needless to say I was nervous. I wanted to impress. But as you can see, I couldn't relax. I tried to think of what the greats recommend... "Smile with your eyes" and of course come up with a signature look (like Blue Steel or La Tigra).
