Which Brain are you?

This spinning lady was posted on Weddingbee today and I just had to post it here! I’ve never seen this before but I think it’s really cool.

If you see the umm naked lady spinning clockwise then you are right-brained

If you see the lady spinning counter-clockwise then you are left-brained.

I see her spin counter-clockwise. I can’t wait to see Scott and see what way he sees her spin. Apparently some people can get her to switch. Sometimes if I only look at her legs they go clockwise for one rotation but then it’s back to counter-clockwise. Man I think I could stare at this for the rest of my day.

For more explanations see here: Left Brained vs. Right Brained

EDIT: I just saw her WHOLE BODY go clockwise for 3 roatations, then it was back to counter-clockwise.. I guess that means I am MOSTLY left-brained and a bit right-brained, but not when I want to be.

Feeling Scrab-U-Lo-Riffic! FiveBlondes + Scrabulous = Love

So I’ve been watching Scrabulous catch on among my Facebook friends over the past few weeks and months (over 10% of my FB friends have it!) and have been thinking to myself “Oh, seems cool, but I won’t have the time”. Finally early this week Mom-the-fabric-snob sends me a request to play a game with he. I thought, ‘why not’, and installed the app (I don’t like to install FB apps generally).

I’m addicted. It’s amazing. I love it. Before this week, Scrabble has always been an occasional family event at my Oma’s house that reminds me of my Opa, who was always up for a game of Scrabble. Or Rummikub. Now that would be a great game for a Facebook app (hint, hint). But I digress - back to Scrabulous. Playing a casual game game of Scrabble in this format allows you the time to really look for words and make the most of all of your tiles. I actually played one word that used ALL of my tiles! GRANOLA - 62 points. You can play with many friends at a time, no matter where they are! Right now we have a game going on with Leah, Micaela, and I…although Micaela hasn’t made a move yet and Leah and I have made 2. Time for a friendly nudge.

Another fun part of Scrabulous is that you can play with absolutely anyone, anywhere. I put out a call for a game with someone random, not necessarily a friend, and am now playing with “Janet C”. After several moved I wondered to myself, who is Janet C? Turns out Janet is from Los Angeles. Pretty neat.

So if you’re looking for a way to spend a little time online and improving your vocabulary at the same time, try Scrabulous. Fun in every move - guaranteed!
