So, since I posted last week, Björn is still in the hospital (he may get out tomorrow), and I have tested positive for Covid. Despite having asthma, my lungs and breathing are remarkably all right; my biggest reaction has been in my gut. Nausea, a metallic taste in my mouth, and zero appetite. Since the last time I weighed myself (the last time I weighed the cats), I have lost 5kg (11lbs). Hey, every cloud has a silver lining, right? Anyway, the other night at about 4am, I had this brilliant idea for a 1950’s-style weight-loss ad…it doesn’t include a cat, but it’s a pretty decent Photoshop if I do say so myself.
The Daily Abyssinian...and Singapura 
That really is a good Photoshop, even with the absence of cats!
I hope you and Bjorn are both feeling LOTS better soon!

Thanks! I started thinking of slogans at 4am and couldn’t sleep till I’d sent them to myself along with links to artwork

Great poster–I really love the fonts you’ve chosen (in addition to all that has been mentioned).
Sending all the good vibes I can find to you and Bjorn. I sure hope he’s home tomorrow.
And as for you and your weight loss, I found that the one time I was losing weight effortlessly I had cancer. Also a crappy way to lose weight.

Thanks! I studied a LOT of those advertisements. What’s funny is, there were almost as many, if not more, ads for GAINING weight back in the 50’s.
