Blood-Brain Barrier



The other day, I was wondering why I hadn't had any full-blown inspired ideas for a long while.

Usually, I come up with an "A-HA!" moment several times throughout the week.

Now I know why.

Due to the sweaty, grossness of this past summer, I decided to let my hair AIR DRY almost every day.

Ba-Hiiiiiiiiiiiggg Mistake.

Yesterday, I dried my hair with my dusty, but trusty, Hair Dryer. And guess what?



Revelation!!





So, my theory is this. When I flip my head over to dry my hair (I have fine hair, which needs to be dried straight on end to look at all reasonable), The blood RUSHES to my brain and stimulates all my "smart" brain cells to fire.

And no, I won't be telling you the big idea. Because... I kinda forgot it when my head cooled off.

BUT...I'll be adding a pad of paper and pen to the bathroom supplies, so no worries.

Pumpkins, leaves, ticks, and fleas.



I know I've said this to many of my friends and family over the years...but I just have to re-state my dear LOVE of Fall.

After many years of being too busy, I took the time this year to head to Young's Dairy for the Pumpkin Festival. Aside from the parking (across the street, only 10 minutes after the place opened), the many sugar-drunk children frantically scrambling to the hayride, and the lugging of the awkward pumpkin....it was fabulous. Not the mention: The "just-out-of-the-oven-warm" pumpkin donut holes made for some very happy family members.

On the darker side of this season...I have to also re-state my abhorrence of bugs. Especially ticks. I've killed three of those suckers (Ha! Get it!?)so far. None of them on my head....I'm too hyper-bug-aware for that to happen.


And can anyone tell me where the Clouds O' Gnats come from? And why are they here?

Close your mouth next to the Foy's house and check behind your ears.
