Getting in your head

I'm currently working at a place that's a half-hour to a forty-five minute drive from my home. This leaves me a lot of time to think. Which is, on the whole, scary. It is during these drives that I get inspired to write a blog post about something which, at the time, makes a lot of sense. You notice I say "at the time" because by the time I actually get home to write the post, well.... it no longer does.

Plus, a lot of the posts I think about making will allow... how to put this... more access into my head than most people would truly desire anyways. I'll give you a "for instance".

I was thinking about how I haven't posted to my blog in a while and how I'm under a lot of stress in both my personal and professional life. I realize the number of people that can and may see my blog and I'm thinking I don't want the whole world to know about EVERYTHING in my life. I get the thought that posting a blog is kind of like giving an open invite to allow people into my head for at least a little while.

The following is a basic script of my thought process after said thought:

"I wonder if there is a room capacity for people's heads. I mean, if too many people get in, can that cause a fire hazard? What if my head is over room capacity and someone yells "fire!"? I'll bet that would give me a headache. What if someone actually starts a fire? Maybe that's what causes fevers. Hmmm.... Maybe I should take an aspirin to prevent these people from getting into my head in the first place. Does aspirin prevent people from getting in your head? I'll bet it works better than tin foil. Oooooh. What about an aspirin COVERED in tin foil? Screw you government, gimme a Bayer and some Reynolds Wrap."

See? You don't really want to read about the things that go on in my head. So the next time I haven't posted in a while, I wouldn't complain if I were you.
