Stream of Consciousness

Have you ever just let your mind wander and see where it takes you? 
While your mind is strolling along have you tried to write everything down without editing; anything that hits the paper stays and can't be crossed out?
I did just that; I took about 5-7 minutes and just wrote down what ever popped into my head. I didn't edit, judge or censor what came up.
What I was not prepared for, were the crazy twists & turns my brain took.
I read my list out loud to a group of women and evidently, they found it quite humorous. 
I'm not sure if it was the crazy connections and how my list evolved or the fact that I read it at breakneck speed and actually sang the snippets of songs as well! 
I'm thinking it was the latter of the two!
Full disclosure there are some items on my list that childhood friends *might* understand and get a chuckle out of it.
