Some Days I Just Make Things By Accident...

Some days I just make things by accident...

I've learned something interesting about the weather:

If the clouds get darker than your morning coffee, it's probably going to get really bad.

This is true no matter how you like your coffee, and it holds for tea drinkers as well.

Tomorrow I leave for college.

...

Am I that old already?

Water music is some of my favorite out of any video game.

This one is no exception.

I've been in Memphis on vacation with my family for the past week.  It was pretty nice; we ate at the Rendezvous, visited Mud Island, walked down Beale Street, the usual. While it was all a novel experience, one thing does stand out to me about our trip:

MEMPHIAN DRIVERS ARE ABSOLUTELY CRAZY.

That is all.

I've discovered that I have a specific thread in my brain that is pulled back, soldered down, and devoted entirely to playing music in my head. At all hours there is some song playing, no matter what I'm doing; it's never silenced. It's annoying when I get a song stuck in my head that will play for days on end, but sometimes it provides good background noise.

The only time it will stop is when I hear the music instead of imagine it. When this happens, my brain stops working to play the song, and it frees up a LOT of processing power. I get really productive with this extra brain juice. I can apply it to anything, too - creativity, concentration, computation, or anything else I need at the moment (especially things that start with 'c').

Even then, sometimes a song stuck in my head will continue to play in the background, taking precedence over whatever is actually playing. This can be annoying, but sometimes I do it on purpose to tune out a song I don't want to hear.

I can't imagine my brain going silent. I think I would go crazy.
