A Cautionary Tale

This is my brain pre-menopause, pre-hypothyroid, pre-middle age, pre-brain sucking job.

This is me now; addlepated, scattered, inarticulate, tongue-tied, scrambled-brained mush.

Don't let this happen to you!

    Too late! I have scrabbled eggs brain these days, too.

    Better make the best of it -- pass the ketchup!

    Hehe, we all have those days when we feel that way.;)
    BUT, I love scrambled eggs.;)
    AND someone who writes such an interesting blog as this one, is in my book very intuitive, fun, creative, articulate, imaginative and smart.
    And will stay that way forever.;)

    How does one avoid it, I wonder? My brain already feels scrambled and mushed after a full day with the kids.

    I keep telling myself it is better than they alternative. You are still very creative, articulate, fun, imaginative, smart, intuitive, and beautiful.

    Stevie, I'm sure that Musey's guru, the good Dr. West addresses this very vital issue in one of his tomes. Musey, can you please look it up and advise us accordingly? It ain't just Stevie like this, we're legion in fact...

    I will look into this post haste. I'm sure it calls for large doses of laudanum, but I will make a complete diagnosis and prognosis this afternoon! Stay toon'd. BTW did you steal Lavinia's scrambled eggs??????

    Yes, let's see what the good doctor would advice...I hope it doesn't involve treatments at the local sanitorium.

    If it's the job, the perhaps it's time for a job change?

    If it's thyroid or menopause, well, I hope you're getting a hand from your doctor.

    You are too wonderful to have less than a wonderful life.

    Wasn't that nice of Lavinia to drive you over to Dr. West's office? He has posted his diagnosis and suggested treatment on my blog.

    He was wondering, if perhaps when you are feeling a bit better, if you might draw a likeness of him. He says with or without his pince-nez would be fine. :-)

    Poor Stevie. I have just been bragging about your wonderful book selection. Didn't it all go so fast? We were young and here we are. Oh well, we're still cute. I repeat that to myself many times a day. I figure it's not hurting anything. You are still very creative and you have a magnificent blog. You go S.W.!!!

I'm glad you stopped by and I look forward to your comments. As Dr. Fraser Crane would say, "Hello, I'm listening."
