Wherein I Muse About BrainStorms

{My Definition} {With a Droll Bit of Banter}

BrainStorm: | \ ˈbrān-ˌstȯrm (noun)
1. A sudden tossing and whirling of everything in my brain, mixing it in a muddle. Happens unexpectedly and periodically without warning.
2. Mental confusion and rattled concentration causing the brain to work in fits and starts.
3. Sudden lightening flashes followed by booming, spell-binding inspirations morphing on into nothing. Simply Blank.

The Cause…

Brainstorms are caused by motherhood, marriage and multitasking, though there are many other likely causes sited as well. Interruptions, Endless Laundry and the Question “Why?” 487 times in an hour, are known to trigger them as well.

Brilliant Ideas…

Brainstorms have been known to produce such brilliances as throwing together a party for fifty people and immediately after the invitations have been mailed, a questioning of your sanity and mind assails you in the form of, “WHAT WAS I THINKING?” {short answer:You Weren’t.} {It was the BrainStorm.}

Side effects and problems…

A few recurring side effects of BrainStorms are Forgetfulness, Forgetfulness…..and….I can’t recall the third one.

Distraction is very common aftermath of a Brainstorm. You find yourself humming along knocking out a task and nailing it down and the next thing you know you’re running off to organize that closet that’s been in Disarray for Six Months, but suddenly must be put in shape ToDaY. Or you look up, and you’re pulling out all the cleaners and alphabetizing them….or WAIT!!!! Should they stand on the shelves according to colors?

It’s been reported that BrainStorms may cause you to climb up on a chair to reach a container in an upper cupboard, only to realize as you open the cupboard door and Stare Blankly, you need to push your chair OVER to the next set of upper cupboards. The upside is this can result in a great workout regimen.

I received a very puzzling account from an aunt of mine concerning actions caused by BrainStorm activity. It’s been noted if you find yourself putting a jigsaw puzzle together while simultaneously snacking, a BrainStorm may cause you to place pretzel on the puzzle and puzzle piece in your mouth. I strongly suggest having someone in the vicinity to photograph the expression on the face when said puzzle piece is bitten into.
