Dear lady at the gym,I was not giving you the dirty looks because of your body shape. As a former not so lean person I applaud the fact that you are taking action regarding the size of your ass. It will be a long and fulfilling journey as you find yourself fitting into smaller clothes, the numbers on the scale moving downward, being able to do things you have never been able to do before and

A bit of clip art that I am working on. This week's theme is people. I'm trying a retro tiki sixties style. Pen and prismacolor pencils.

Lunch today was an attempt at a variation of red beans and rice. Black beans and brown rice. Included some endamame, spinach, onion, bell pepper, and celery. Opted to go meatless. Had some chili powder in the mix but most of it boiled away. Need to add spices later in the process because this was a bit bland. Estimated nutritional content: 300 calories, 53 g carbohydrates, 3 g fat, 16 g protein,

Today's lunch was whole wheat linguine with chicken, spinach, onion, mushroom, bell pepper, and Butoni marinara sauce. The chicken and pasta were the dominant flavors; the sauce was secondary. Only used a half cup. Tasted good with no side effects so far. The marinara was in the back of the fridge for a while and looked a bit questionable. Estimated nutrition information: 457 calories, 56 g Carbs

Today's homemade lunch was a salad. Salads are hard to mess up.This is a spinach salad with tuna (Starkist tuna pack), grapes, pineapple, walnuts, celery, bell pepper, mandarin oranges, a dash of red pepper flakes and a tablespoon of balsamic vinegar.Didn't use salad dressing because each ingredient has enough flavoring on its own and the vinegar and flakes took the edge off the spinach.

The gesture interrupted Delilah's blouse unbuttoning.Liberal use of clone stamp and paintbrush.

The young man on the left pouring the liquid is a member of a rival gang thus the scowl.Both guys may be scowling because they are the bread to a Toby and Mary "oh for the love of god, please shut up" sandwich. The roving patio furniture is more troubling.Yes, Toby, we get it,

Included the original below. Is someone rearranging Toby, Mary and the pool furniture during this conversation? Yesterday, they were in the middle of nowhere. Today, they are poolside. The pool has also grown in their absence. Maybe the earthquakes are very intense in Santa Royale and the residents are used to it.Santa Royale is built on a giant electric football field build by ancient alien

The pool party has moved on.Dialogue removal was easy for this strip. No foliage or background people to reconstruct. The plants and the people have become bored with Mary and Toby's conversation. Only the sniper hiding behind the rocks remains.

The only pool party where no one wears a swimsuit. The pool has shrunk since the last party. In the original second panel, a dialogue balloon covered 2/3 of the man in the powder blue slacks' face. I decided someone at this party needed to do something that looked remotely fun, so I used a bit of artistic license. Nothing perks up a party like a man in slacks standing around wearing a clown nose.

I had nothing to do with the odd shadows. What sort of creature casts a shadow selectively? A Mary Worth!I want the ability to selectively cast my shadow in order to create a sense of unease. A cool but useless ability. More useful: the ability to make home accessories disappear.Delilah ought to reconsider her stay with Mary.

Mary needs to get the screws holding her face in place tightened. I expect to find circuits under her face like Yul Brynner in Westworld.Why is Delilah glancing over her shoulder? Perhaps hoping no one sees her adjust her bra strap? Or scratching that itch in an awkward place? The horror.Suffered from some mouse drift while cloning the curtains. That previous sentence would make a surreal tweet.

The clone tool comes in handy when removing dialogue from curtains. Original art on Mary's wall in the first panel. I call it "Be the Brand". I drew the foliage, too.Three days on a single phone conversation.Finally came up with a slightly clever title to this series, "Mary Wordless".

Another in a series of Mary Worth without words. I can draw better with a Wacom tablet rather than a mouse. Should have used the line tool on the stairs.The crappy paint job does add an extra surreal element.Maybe this will improve my Photoshop skills.Hopefully this will become funnier as the story progresses.

Inspired by a comment of the week on the Comics Curmudgeon: http://joshreads.com/?p=3231 and Garfield Minus Garfield, I present Mary Worthless - Mary Worth with the dialogue removed.So what is funnier with the dialogue removed - the facial expressions, moving backgrounds or my crappy photoshop skills?I've been neglecting the blog lately. Maybe this will bring some focus back to it.

Too busy over the weekend to even think about turning on the TV. Found that I have gained an extra hour of sleep by not watching television while eating breakfast. I hope Joe and Mika (hosts of MSNBC's Morning Joe) don't mind. The extra hour of sleep is quite an enticement to make a ban on morning television permanent.Skipping Adult Swim on Sunday allowed me to enjoy other activities. I made it
