Cruise Brain

It's raining, it's pouring, I'd rather be snoring... I have Cruise Brain. My dearest-darling and I have a Caribbean cruise booked soon and I have reached the point where I have NOTHING else on my brain but this trip. I'm making lists for everything in the hope that I a) don't forget to pack anything important I will need on the trip and b) don't forget anything important to take care of before we leave. If this trend continues, soon I'll have a daily list that says:

1. Breathe
2. Shower
3. Breathe
4. Dress
5. Breathe
6. etc., etc.....

A combination of Menopause Brain and Cruise Brain is a scary thing. It would be kinder on everyone around me if I could just be unconcious for the next couple of weeks and have someone wake me up just in time to pack. But since that isn't a practical option, I'll make more lists.

1. Eat
2. Breathe
3. Wash dishes
4. Breathe....

I SHOULD be making art to pass the time. That would be the smart thing to do. But who said a person with Cruise Brain was smart?
