Self Diagnosis #324

Is it possible to be ingesting lead paint without knowing it?
I am pretty sure that I am dumber than I used to be.

Lead paint? See I just always assumed that having kids caused you to become dumber. Tyler claims that I build my babies out of brain cells, since I am obviously losing mine.

But I like the lead paint theory. We'll stick with that one for this week.

Did you eat a lot of paint chips when you were a kid?

Why?

Can you name that movie?

If you can, that alone is a reason to be dumber than you used to be.

The other night our friends were trying to teach me a new card game. I couldn't grasp it. At that moment, I realized, and pretty easily accepted the fact, that I may never be able to learn anything new, ever again.
That's weird. Hope I got enough up there to get me through the later years.

Sooooo, is that chili recipe down below a secret??


I think I have ingested lot of lead from old houses we've lived in. Top it off with 4 pregnancies and I don't know why I am even functioning right now, or maybe I'm not and my family is just playing along and being nice to me.

I get into arguments all the time with a five-year old who assures me that he knows more than I do.

I'm with the kid theory. So that makes you [insert calculating noises] approximately 4 kids dumber. So the lead can't hurt you now. Go for it. Eat it. Any other questions?
(I am quite tickled by myself right now.)

...let's not forget as we loose our grey matter, our feet get bigger with each pregnancy. That did not help one bit, did it?

I personally blame it on each pregnancy. They suck everything out of you and just give you cellulite back.
