Default Brain Not Working Today
This isn't really a vent but my body and brain feel like jello today -- not necessarily attributable to MS but I knew all of you here would understand!

Anyway, my listlessness caused me to go to Google and type in "brain not working today" and it returned 22,700,000 results. So I wanted you to know we have lots of company.

WOW!!

There are so many of us!

I have dumb- "donkey" attacks where my brain just goes in neutral for awhile but fortunately it doesn't last too long.

It must be contagious because I'm right there with you.

Last night a commercial for Lowe's came on and it showed various pictures of the Lowe's logo with a "T" at the end.

Now, the "T" in these images was a broom handle, a little girl drawing it on a fogged up window, a person standing with their arms outstretched. Different everyday things that can resemble a "T".

Okay....I didn't get it. After the commercial was over I piped up and said "Why's the "T" there? What does it mean?"

My son Kevin said "it spells "lowest" Mom. They're advertising that they have the lowest prices. Get it....Lowe's....lowest." I think I scared him!!

It made perfect sense to me then....I just didn't see it during the commercial.

Much like the time I asked the produce manager at the grocery store what a Pine Apple was. I was used to seeing it written as Pineapple. But their sign said "Pine" on one line and "Apple" on the other. I asked what kind of an apple was a pine apple. He looked at me like I had three heads!

Why does my brain do things like that to me.....especially when there are witnesses!

We all have those days weeks, or even months. I have only managed to learn about 25% of my student's names this semester.
