So, I bet you’re wondering, what does eMom do when she is avoiding work? Well, since that happens only .000000001% of the time, not much (hahahahaha – right). But when my mind needs a break, here are some of my favorite places to unwind online:

**Char runs her Casual Fridays on Casual Keystrokes and sometimes gives away goodies (which is nice because I can actually have a chance at winning some of them unlike on Momsational!)

**I watch the Neatorama headlines and usually get sucked in when they find especially weird or cool things, like this hobbit house or a story on asphalt-eating bacteria. Yep, you read that right.

**Sometimes I just want to look at pretty things (so girly of me, I know…). That’s when I head over to Design Sponge, where even the ads are eye candy. And right now they are doing all of these gift-guide thingys that would break just about any budget on the planet if you got everything you wanted (as in, all of it!)

**And finally, no distracted Friday would be complete without a gaping stare at the photos over at Stuck in Customs…  he uses this amazing HDR effect in which he composites different exposures into one photo that is literally breathtaking… he’s good at sucking a whole hour out of my day sometimes… jerk.
