I can totally relate to the mind taking the scenic route, but that's just fine I do enjoy the trips.
ReplyDeleteJimmy; mine is permanently on the scenic route, which is fine with me, straight lines are no fun.
Delete#2 - Eww! Yuck!
ReplyDeleteGrace; makes you think twice about swimming until you realise pools aren't filled with saliva. Just plain old water and chlorine.
DeleteHahaha Maybe I should stop eating health food and start on the preservatives.
ReplyDeleteBelva; I think your health foods are preserving you well enough.
Delete:]
ReplyDeleteAuthor R.Mac Wheeler; I knew you'd like these.
Delete#2 will make me want to spit more.
ReplyDeletejoeh; until you run dry?
DeleteI always get lost, terrible sense of direction. Got lost once in Rite Aide.
ReplyDeleteSusan Kane; I don't often get lost when I'm out, but winding through an Ikea store makes it possible.
DeleteI should be eating more junk food I guess.
ReplyDeleteonly slightly confused; let us know how that works out :)
Delete2.....Not enough to fill Sydney Harbour, a measurement often used.
ReplyDeleteAndrew; I'd forgotten about the Sydney Harbour measurement.
DeleteWonderful, apart from #2. I loved #1 and #3 in particular.
ReplyDeletejabblog; I like #1 and #3 also.
DeleteGuilty of 3 but then I have always enjoyed the trip more than the destination.
ReplyDeleteMight need to give 4 serious thought:))
Arkansas Patti; scenic routes are always more interesting. #4 almost makes sense.
Delete3 certainly rings true with me.
ReplyDeleteI say there's so much in there to remember the good stuff has a hard job finding the way out because of all the rubbish in the way.

Cathy; "rubbish in the way" describes my brain perfectly :)
DeleteNo wonder my mouth gets so dry at night. It's filling swimming pools while I sleep, most likely using my pillow as a sponge to transfer the saliva to the pool.
ReplyDeleteVal; wring out your pillow in the morning, find out if that's true. It sounds kind of yucky. My mouth is dry at night because I take antihistmamines so I can breathe, there are a lot of night-blooming things around here that stuff me up.
DeleteI'm complete confuss which route my brain take.
ReplyDeletepeppylady (Dora); sometimes I think my brain went off on a holiday and hasn't come back yet.
DeleteA good lot to ponder upon this week, River. :)
ReplyDeleteLee; pondering isn't in my job description, but now and again I do think on things like these.
ReplyDeleteI have a brain full of quick solutions that I don't have any use for.
ReplyDeleteVest; I have a brain full of silly ideas that no one has a use for (*~*)
DeleteDo like the old people one, took my fancy :)
ReplyDeleteMargaret-whiteangel; preservatives in the form of yummy non-health foods sounds good to me. Bring on the doughnuts!
DeleteBigger Girl's brain often takes a scenic route, too. Changing where i want to go is going to become my new way of dealing with getting lost.
ReplyDeletemessymimi; I like the idea of changing where I want to go.
DeleteThese are fun!
ReplyDeletejenny_o; aren't they? :)
DeleteThose quotes are terrific! I especially relate to the ones about getting lost & changing the destination and the brain taking the scenic route. Sounds like me!
ReplyDeleteSusan; I'm wondering what the rest of the calendar has to say.
DeleteWow on the pools and I believe it on the animation.
ReplyDeleteThe Happy Whisk; animation is so hard to get just right.
DeleteRetracing your steps is the simple solution. mind you , you have to know where you started from
ReplyDeleteVest; remembering where you came from is the most important part.
DeleteMemory is the scribe of one's soul.
ReplyDeleteOld. .... Old is when one becomes bone idle and forgets where the boudoir is located. or simply stop looking.
ReplyDeleteLEE. I am forever constantly Pondering.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy little bits of trivia and tidbits. Hugs...RO
