This made my day! Sent to you by tony via Google Reader: Mom Turns Her Baby’s Napping Positions Into Art via Bored Panda by Tomas on 11/14/12 Adele Emersen used to present herself as a copywriter & concept designer in advertising, but now she's probably more famous for her maternity leave hobby – photographing her children while they sleep and then adding some adorable details to the pictures. Her first project, which eventually turned into a book called " When My Baby Dreams ", featured her baby daughter Mila in the settings of what she might've been dreaming of. Now the Internet started "awwwing" about Adele's second child Vincent: this summer she photographed her baby with an iPhone, and then sketched some activities on top of the pictures. Minimalistic and nicely child-like, they are exactly what you wanna see in your childhood album once you grow up. Some moms just don't know what it means to get lazy or bored! We...

Jim Lee drew the striking cover, and he and Johns are very aware...

So, this hasn't happened in a while. And by "this", I mean writing an actual entry.  Sure, I've answered some of Platypi's questions, but I can't call those actually entries that were about me.  I don't know what to say except that sometimes I feel the strongest urge to write and sometimes I just want to sit on my duff and veg in front of the boob tube (oh who am I kidding???  I'm looking at porn on the Internet!  I mean they're so naked...and smooth...!); today is the former. Tonight, for the third time this week, I'm disappointed in myself.  For the last few days, I've been unable to make my diet goals. First, a little back story.  For the last several months, I've been on a diet.  A hardcore, ass-kicking diet consisting of calorie counting, walking and an elliptical machine.  I've been on this grind since November and since then, I've successfully dropped 4 pants sizes.  I'm now a svelte size 33 or 34 depending on ...
