I know you all think I haven't blogged in quite some time, but in fact, you are wrong. Let me explain...
After I sit down in the morning to enjoy a hot cup of blog-dom (reading from all of you), I glance down at the clock in the corner of the monitor and think "well, I better get going". Then, it's off to the shower where I post on my own blog like crazy. Here's the catch...I post...in my mind! Whoa!! Okay, I realize there are some practicality issues here. Number one - no one (with the exception of perhaps Dagnasty, because of his Jedi powers and the puppy Jethro, because of his apparent ninja-ness) can read what I post in my mind. Let me reassure the rest of you, I've posted some kick ass blogs lately! We're talking nuggets of greatness mixed in a nougat of inventive, creative observations. Sorry you missed them.
This leads me to my main question, however. Why is it that so many people - myself included - have such great thoughts in the shower? Is it that somehow, mixed with the wonderful hot water, there are actual 'creative juices'? Now let me remind you, I'm a girl. Sometimes I have much shaving, buffing, scrubbing, polishing to do in the shower. It's not like I just stand there like some other gender. Even with all these tasks at hand though, nothing beats shower time for some truly focused thought and, therefore, birth of truly great ideas.
So where are your great thinking spots??

That's out there, man. To think, you've been blogging this whole time on your mind blog.
The best place for me to think is usually mindless physical activity: walks, exercise, picking up dog poop. The shower is too comfortable, and all I think about is how warm and relaxing it is.
I've actually been reading your mind blog this whole time. Good stuff.
The shower's pretty good for thinking, but nothing beats the cognitive stimulation that occurs while mowing the lawn. When I'm sitting on a John Deere tractor I am a genious.
Friends, good places both. The K-train has definately got your back with the john deere and I know nothing stimulates thought like fresh poo. Wouldn't it be great if what totally stimulated you was a barren 6x6 space with a desk and chair? Imagine how productive our nation, as a whole, would be. I bet Bill Gates loves 'desk time'.
