In the theory that writing it down will let my brain get off the spinning carousel for a while:
– hmmmm, what would that new tattoo look like?
– kid 3?? what on earth would we do with 3 of ’em?!
– performance appraisals: gotta make ’em worthwhile to him (I only work with hims on my teams at the moment – not being sexist) and to me
– it’s hard enough to get her to sleep at our house. How on earth do you expect a sleepover at YOUR house to work?
– dirt-biking: yeah!
– OPIC, OPIC, OPIC… why couldn’t I remember what that acronym was during the exam!
– I swear if I have to debug another firewall issue, I’m going to … set fire to the daggone wall
– “Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat, please to put a penny in a poor man’s hat”

Brain spinning faster, not slower…. Brain wave acceleration. Or maybe that’s just the beer talking.
