10 Percent my butt...

I want to have a word with whatever genius came up with that... we've all heard it before, how we only utilize 10 percent of our brain capacity. Nice theory... too bad it's complete crap. If that were true, then explain to me where all that extra brain goes after we experience the miracle of motherhood? What happened to my ability to keep a running total of numbers in my head? Or remember what I was supposed to buy at the store without making a very detailed list of all three items? Or that I had a really important appointment at 1:00 the day before, that I just remembered today??? Where were you on that one, oh extra brain matter? If we only use 10 percent, then the rest of it is just there to take up space make us feel better about ourselves as a species, as it's totally useless for anything else. If any of you moms out there have figured out a way to gain some of your thinking ability back, please share. In the meantime, I will continue to try and re-master the ability to add & subtract small numbers without writing them down or using the calculator on the computer. Boy howdy...
