what's up? how's it goin'? thought up any good...uh...er... thoughts lately? pondered any great problems? i only ask because you seem a little preoccupied these days. are you okay? is there anything you need? anything i can do? no? well then, would you mind, terribly, if i asked you one teensie-tiny little question?
WHAT THE FUCK HECK IS THE MATTER WITH YOU? (get it? "matter"? as in gray matter? see brain, thank goodness there was 'no pun intended' there, because you wouldn't have gotten it anyway!) gosh, remember when you used to function? when ideas flew around in there like flies on a pile of shit? now you are a pile of shit, my little vacuous chum. and, as of this moment, good for one thing and one thing only: taking up space between my ears. that's right, i've noticed you've been dormant for quite a little while, oh wrinkled one. well, by golly, i won't have it! i won't! it's time for you to do what you do best, you worthless sack of neurons, break out with a notion or two! ya hear what i'm saying? stop blanking out on me! stop it rightthisminute. don't you know i need you? hasn't it occured to you that i can't do a post without you? not only that,
but it just so happens i keep all the stuff i know in you. which wouldn't be a problem, except for the fact that i don't have any back-up. trust me, i understand you've been feeling somewhat foggy of late, but, for the love of god, do us both a favor, will ya... snap out of it!
come home, and all will be forgotten forgiven.
SOPHIE
[if anyone needs me, i'll be HERE (daddy's post is beyond hysterical) or over here (snarkin' it up with my homies). please let me know if my brain shows up.]

You are not alone. Maybe it's a summertime thing? Maybe it's the need of a vacation? More sex? (my vote) More Mexican food? More sex & mexican food while on vacation? Even at your least inspired moment you are more creative than any thousand people I know....so there! I love you.

:)I'm sure its there... its just relaxing a bit before yet another moment of profound intelligence comes shining through as always. THAT takes a lot of energy ya know!

I wouldn't know a brain if it rode past me on a bicycle. Haven't seen mine in a long time. I let it wander once, and, poof! it was gone.

Good Thursday morning,
I wanted to let you know that I deleted your comment and reposted. That brain fart has been taken care off.
Posted by: Brian | 22 June 2006 at 07:07 AM
You know I read this yesterday and in my own ADD moment didn't comment. So now can I relate or what?
Besides, you've been too busy taking care of things at the Shnark. A brain can only handle so much you know. You just crack me up.
Posted by: g | 22 June 2006 at 09:02 AM
...ya know, the thing you really have to watch out for is boy #2 cause he has a tendency to suck the energy and creativity right outta ya! Oh he doesn't mean to, mind you...lucky he's a cute kid.

TLP: in my mind's eye i see this brain on a bicycle... oh, wait, that's the paper boy. you are too funny, girlfriend! i laughed out loud at that comment! xox
Brian: now see... you had proof positive of my brain's failure to communicate! thank god! a witness! (thanks for fixing that!) ; D
g: here you let me yip at you, girlfriend, when you had your *own* new post up! you should have been thumbing your nose at me instead of coming over here to comment on this worthless post! xoxo
Minka: you little cutie pie! based on what you now know, you can see why i was relieved your "brain teaser" was so easy today! it's very tough keeping up with you clever kids, don't ya know! xox
Posted by: neva | 22 June 2006 at 10:50 PM
Neva, you're too funny. Happy Friday! :)

Ha, ha, haaaaa!
Ooooh! Shiny things? Lil' BoheMia went through a phase, when she was 1, where she would run towards anything metal, and yes this included run-down crummy fences in the street, tongue out, ready to lick! NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
OOoh! Someone talk to Loverboy! Sex, food and vacations!!! I want me some of that! Hey Loverboy! Are you reading this?!?!?!?!?
*sigh* See what happens when your husband is a non-blogger? I predict the controversy wil move away from interracial relationships and into the new frontier of blogger-nonblogger couplings... it is tough I tell you, TOUGH!!!

That's a cute post, brain or no brain!

If I happen to run into your brain I will remind it that its owner blithely promised to check the mail today :-)

Sar: and you are too kind! hope you have a fun weekend... and that the birthday doodle-girl does, too! xox

kyahgirl: ouchie! see... and you thought i was kidding about the whole brain thing... hee hee! the email is up and running now, my friend! (sorry about that...) xoxox

Thanks for the advice at my place - but we already have a puppy! Well, a fat lazy bulldog. I guess I just don't write about her nearly as much as you. Maybe it's time to formally introduce her to the blogworld?
Enjoy your weekend.
