Sometimes one encounters a work of art so perfect, so moving, that one is compelled to share it with the entire world. For me, that day is now, that art is this picture here.
My friend Darla over at She’s A Maineiac, recreates the sizzling tension between Rhett Butler and Scarlett in a way never before envisioned by the human mind.
She is both the art and the artist.
Darlett O’Hara, Darl Winslet, that chick on House…she is whomever and whatever you want her to be. Go worship at her feet.
****I officially declare this “Pick One of Darla’s Insane Pictures And Post It On Your Blog” day. It’s official, folks. Really.*****
I can’t stand it. I simply can-not stand it.

OMG I love the new pictures. Darlia Roberts, I’m stuck here on my own blog because of the damn tablet computer I have at home. I lose my WordPress login when I go to read anyone else’s blog, so I can’t comment. ARRGH! Isn’t it great that Misty took part?

But then I saw one of your tags in this post: “things a person will do for a laugh”. Just what are you trying to say here, Pego? That I will stoop to any level? That I will basically prostitute myself a la Darlia Roberts for a cheap giggle? Yeah? Is that what you think of me?
You are correct.

You have really gotten a lot of work done today, Peg. I lost count after about 12 (I’m a lawyer, so can’t do the maths) of your pick a picture day comments on Darla’s post. You are an evil genius, as always. I bow to your mastery. And now to contemplate what picture to use for my blog. Hopefully I remember how to even post anything.

We DIDN’t stay up until 1:30, although I did wake up on the couch at 11:58pm – just in time to see the ball drop. Pat was snoozing comfortably so I left him be and went to bed.
