Today's Post is Brought to you by Yesterday's Procrastination.

It's been a MINUTE since I posted anything. And I have nothing original today besides commentary. Found some of the most stunning imagery on blogs (mostly Tumblr) and literally lost half my day to the madness. So I hope, if nothing else...you enjoy them. I'll try and find some way to tie it all together. AND to also finish this doggone Georgetown essay! As my favorite blogger, YouHypeSikeNah says, disfruta (enjoy)

Theme One: Children. Babies. Young'n's. AKA the Future.
 I love little kids. But I was never really around them except for the time that I was one...meaning that in my immediate family my brother and I had no cousins in Louisville. Anyhoo. Although I love little kids I'm in NO RUSH. And I will repeat NO RUSH to have any. For the time being, I just enjoy cute pics of kids, among other things...like art. I look at kids they way other people look at reality TV. It can be fun to enjoy the madness for awhile, knowing good and well that you can recuse yourself from the situation at any time, by simply changing the channel or leaving the room...OR (heaven forbid) turning off the set. ;-) So...with that said...I bring you...the bebes...
