TODAY’S WIND DOWN PRESENTED BY

Happy Tuesday Afternoon, Neighbor!

How’d that weather treat ya this weekend? I was feeling the heck out of it myself. I popped over to Springs Preserve, got my seasonal Starbucks, and pretty much just pretended fall could go on and on. But, other than a minor blip this week, it seems like it might actually be here to say. I even got out my winter blankie over the weekend!

Also, I had an appointment that took me toward The Strip this morning, and, wow, all that F1 construction’s got the air quality looking real good. Try not to suck that too deep into your lungs.

Did You Know? 🦠

Your belly button is like a tiny jungle filled with microbial life.

And that's not an exaggeration.

In the aptly named Belly Button Biodiversity Project, scientists discovered that the average navel hosts around 2,368 different species of bacteria. Which sounds like a lot, because it is… but that’s not even the craziest part. Of those 2,368 species of bacteria, 1,458 of them were new to science. That’s right, your belly button is like the creepy cave of human anatomy.

It’s also a living petri dish.

And, like your fingerprints, the biodiversity of your belly button is also entirely unique. That's because the bacteria living in your belly button is influenced by your environment, genetics, and even your hygiene habits. Basically, your navel is a microbial metropolis, and what thrives in there depends on everything from the soaps you use to the climate where you live.

Wonder when detectives will start taking belly button samples along with fingerprints at bookings?

The point is, if you ever feel lonely, remember… you’re not. You are never, ever truly alone. You’ve got an entire bio-dome thriving in your midsection.
