<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-644" title="Why I have headaches!" src="http://www.dawnblanchfield.com/elfini/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/left_right_brain_2.jpg" alt="Why I have headaches!" width="442" height="384" /></p>

<p>As I mentioned, I&#8217;m not taking a computer programming class this semester. And apparently dropping that Rails class threw a switch in my brain! Not only has the right hemisphere taken back control of my brain, it erected a wall one night while I was sleeping. The left hemisphere has been shut out. And is in black-out conditions. I can&#8217;t even think about programming and websites. Which is a shame because I do have some coding work to do. But everytime I think about it, things get kinda of fuzzy and I suddenly have an idea for an art project! Weird huh? I seem to to be functioning  in a very strict either/or mode. Long gone are the days of thinking in if/else statements. Now I ponder whether the highlights on that stamp should be silver or gold. I <em>like</em> it. And since the creative muse if often fleeting, I&#8217;m gonna ride this wave as long as it lasts.</p>
<p>(and please note that language is a left-brain trait)</p>
