the return of creepy grow a boyfriend

  so lately i've been seeing all sorts of cool photo projects that people have been doing, where they take miniature figures and pose them in different places. my favorite ones are by Christopher Boffoli. i'm sorry if i spelled that wrong. i tried! his pictures are guaranteed to make me laugh, or at least, smile.

  although this is definitely not going to be on any "scale" as good (pun intended, not at first, but then i just couldn't resist putting it in).

  i am reintroducing the return of the creepy grow a boyfriend for my own miniature project (let's see how long this one works).

  and i am going to need your readers help in two areas!

1. grow a boyfriend needs a proper name. he cannot just continue in existence as "grow a boyfriend", especially if he is to have an entire photo project geared toward him
2. i'm going to need some ideas on where to take grow a boyfriend's pictures! i have a few, but if i want to turn this into something at least blog-worthy, i'm going to need more than just the ramblings that bumble around in my head.

  so that's that. what i ask of you guys. wherever you may be out there. and if anyone actually reads this blog besides the 'bots that probe the internet trying to virus-ize my computer.

  one last thing before i leave you today: the caption for this picture. you know all of those Ryan Gosling pictures fumbling around on the internet out there (don't even ask, who's Ryan Gosling?)? well, the caption for this picture should be, "babe, you don't need any makeup today. you look just fine." or something along those lame lines :)

  oh, one last (this time it's really the last) thing:

day 57: project...

Word of the semi-wise. DON'T EVER TRY TO GROW A BOYFRIEND.

One of my brothers went on vacation and what did he bring his only little sister back as a present but my very own "grow a boyfriend" project. The packaging reads as follows: "Grow a boyfriend If you can't get a date then grow the perfect mate! Drop me in the water for a lover that's made to order." Yeah, pretty funny, I admit it :) Now you know where I get my sense of "humor". Six big brothers, with the only boyfriend they're okay with is made to grow to six times his original size (also from the packaging).

So me and one of my sisters-in-law and my other brother decided to have a little project when they were all up a few weekends ago. We plopped the little guy in a dish of water and watched him grow!

The only problem is, my "boyfriend" had a slight growing deficiency. Namely, one of his legs was shorter than the other, and he had a club foot! And....he also looked pretty creepy!! But not as creepy as he looks now that he's shrinking back to his dehydrated glory. Every day brings a new surprise! <--that's what the packaging should really say...
