Introduction I am trying something new. While I am still blessed, I have been participating in a cultish experience, or at least that is how Lisa Camp would describe it, and she thinks I will be fine once I am deprogrammed. For the time being, however, I can not stand all of the writing I have been doing to go to waste. Kelly Marzoni wondered where oh where my blog had gone. I put all my Ty stuff on facebook now, so might as well try something new. The name of my remodeled blog refers to a hilarious inside joke between my husband and I based off of Dave Barry's short about serious painters. Well, Brain thinks there are also serious writers, who write poem after poem about blue paint and a garden rock, when in all reality people, it is blue paint, nothing more. So here is my stab at being a (not-so-serious) "writer."

How do we know that the things a 2 1/2 month old see and hears don't affect him in later years?
