Spin Me Right Round

Have you seen this yet? You look at this image of a spinning silhouette and, depending on how you see the image, you can determine whether your right-brain or left-brain is dominant. Which you probably already know at this point in your life, but it's cool anyway. I'm so right-brained that I can't even see it the other way when I try. via Kottke, Graphic Design Bar and others

    Wow. That was scary. Clockwise was the most dominant for me (I *am* a computer scientist, right? Or am I just confused?) I got her to turn counter clockwise twice, but it involved scrolling down until she was off the screen and scrolling back up. And it only worked twice out of 5 tries.

    I guess I *didn't* know whether I was left or right brained.

    I could only see clockwise, too. Odd.

    I don't think this test gives correct answers. I can mainly see clockwise turning, but I took a test here:

    and the results said I gave no right brain answers.

Reading/ Watching/ Listening

 Reading: The Rules of Civility by Amor Towles. I didn't like it nearly as much as A Gentleman in Moscow . In fact, I liked it only barely enough to keep reading. Watching: Poker Face , on Peacock. Papi and I have enjoyed watching this, one episode at a time, and not every day. It's a little formulaic, but the sets and the guest stars are fun. I like that it changes scenery every episode. Listening to: The Beatles Channel, Sirius XM. Ever since watching Get Back , the Beatles documentary, I've enjoyed listening to them with new ears.
