If I Only Had A Brain

It has been said and noted by myself and others that my brain can be a dark and scary place. The amount and types of things that I remember can sometimes pale in comparison to why I remember them and what brings them back out of the massive file cabinet in my head. 

For example, that last file cabinet statement is actually a reference to an early-90s  Fox television series that a lot of people have forgotten about; Herman’s Head. In the show, Herman (William Ragsdale) was an office worker whose brain was filled with 4 people representing his emotions and intellect. Hilarity ensued. Whenever he tried to remember something you would see them sifting through filing cabinets.  On one of what will probably be a daily occurrence of tangents (don’t worry, unlike real life, I should be able to make it back since it’s written down) there were two memorable stars on that show. The receptionist was played by Yeardley Smith. Who you say? Well on one episode she answers the phone and says “No I am not Lisa Simpson”. Yep, she does the voice. Second and more prominently, if featured the debut to the masses of one Hank Azaria.  America is thankful. But now do you see how my mind works? One little statement or occurrence can set me off into a story or memory which may or may not be related to where my thought process began. I set out to do an intro to my new style of blog entry and instead I end up coming up enough for my initial one. 

And as a final note, there really is no rhyme or reason to said filing system. It fascinates even me as to what vision, thought, emotion or song will bring one of said memories to light. But now, you have a better understanding.
