The Life and Times of Malady

What the Blog is about: I don't know any other bloggers who are doing what Kirsten does.  This is not a blog, it's a "blogtoon."  Each post is a cartoon that illustrates the hilarity and pathos of motherhood and being a licensed massage therapist.   A post called "Geography" features a map of the United States.  An arrow on Portland denotes, "exhausted mom, over-worked dad, sick kid."  Arrows pointing to New Jersey and Florida indicate "free babysitting."  Posts are well drawn in a straight-forward style, with great use of color.  The writing is always on par with the art.  The Life and Times of Malady is the perfect intersection of artistic talent, humor and language.
