I consider myself a fairly smart woman. Some days. Other days, not so much. Like today. Like reading blogs. Like reading, to be specific, kellyrfineman
First, a disclaimer. I’m an online kind of gal. I do almost everything I can online. My dayjob has me online (of sorts) all day. So I always think about doing things online first.
Okay, back to the confession. I read Kelly’s blog every day. She makes me think and she makes me laugh. I bookmark posts of hers to remember later and share them with my friends. And one of the things I always get a kick out of is the way her music matches her posts. The first couple of times I just sort of smiled to myself. The next time I checked for the group or the CD or the streaming station and mentally filed it away. (Some of you might have an inkling of where this is going.) I did that a few more times. Then today I decide to organize my bookmarks. I was putting all my online music places in order and I remembered about Kelly’s Brain Radio and how I always liked the songs she found there. You know what’s coming, don’t you? I pulled up a browser and typed in brainradio.com and of course, got nothing.
So then I searched on “Brain Radio” and still, nothing.
I usually consider myself pretty good at research but I finally had to admit defeat. I was just about ready to pop Kelly an email when I had that “Aha” moment – Brain Radio, as in the radio in Kelly’s brain. Sigh.
Some days I’m a smart cookie.Other days, not so much.
Hee! I love what’s playing on your Brain Radio!
Too funny.
I did the same thing last week, Susan! But I never made the connection to Kelly’s (magnificent) brain.
hahahahaha – oops, sorry, not nice to laugh at people.
I love seeing what’s playing in Kelly’s brain. I look forward to that almost as much as her wonderful posts! 🙂
It took me a while to figure that out, too. Her brain plays such cool things. 🙂
No need to apologize for the way your mind works.
Yeah, um, sorry about that. “Brainradio” is a term I coined to describe the radio that plays pretty much nonstop in my head. There’s always (or almost always) music going there. Right now, it’s the Mexican Hat Dance. Trust me when I say, you don’t really wanna hear it.
Thanks for your kind words about my blog. They made me very misty-eyed. Smooch!

Dude, I so don’t want to be a BJ. Ack!!
Re: Don’t feel so all alone!
I knew as soon as I wrote that THAT acronym would be only one “seen”…you’re not that and I will go and delete
sorry!
Re: Don’t feel so all alone!
No offense was taken, and I laughed heartily. No worries, and no need to delete on my account (although knowing you, it’s too late!)
I am also a regular reader of Writing & Ruminating, and it took me a while to get “brainradio” too. But once the meaning clicked in, it made perfect sense. That word needed to be invented! OED, take note.
