\u201cI have a theory about the human mind. A brain is a lot like a computer. It will only take so many facts, and then it will go on overload and blow up.\u201d<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0 – Erma Bombeck<\/p>\n

Do you ever come to the end of an exceptionally long day and feel like your head is going to explode? Yeah\u2026that\u2019s how I feel today.<\/p>\n

I seriously wish that when we reached the point of overload from having processed far too much info to even make sense of it anymore during the day that we could simply stick a \u201cTemporarily Out of Order\u201d sign to our foreheads! Wouldn\u2019t that be awesome if we could actually do that? Can you imagine going to work and being able to put that sign on your forehead and then everyone else just had to respect that your brain was temporarily out of order so they had to leave you alone? And how awesome would it be if at home with your family when everyone is yelling at you at once to cook this, or clean that, or find this, and you could literally pop a post it sign on your forehead saying out of order and it required everyone to do it for themselves? How cool would that be\u2026seriously!\u00a0 We should all start doing it cause if enough of us do it together than everyone else will have to get on board with it \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

I\u2019m game to try because sometimes there isn\u2019t enough Tylenol out there to cure the headache you have. And frankly if I have to hear my husband tell me one more time that it\u2019s just because I am dehydrated I am probably going to slug him\u2026plus I drank plenty of Diet Coke to keep me hydrated today so that is clearly not the problem \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

My mother would tell me to slow down and not do so much, which totally makes sense, except I seem to seriously suck at doing that\u2026she sent me an email so I would hopefully get the message and I had to laugh because chances are it\u2019s totally true:<\/p>\n

\"angel\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The bottom line today is that my brain is too fried to come up with anything inspirational or motivational to blog about tonight\u2026but my hope is that any of you suffering from information overload and a horrible\u00a0headache can now know that\u00a0you are not alone! So go get the post it note and put that “temporarily out of order”\u00a0sign on your foreheads! I will if you will \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Here’s hoping for a far less stressful day tomorrow…<\/p>\n
