Trying to find the Balance

When you walk into Starbucks and you..

1. I. Smell the coffee aroma (olfactory)..
2. II. Read the order menu from about 20 feet away (optic) then you..
3. III.  Pupils constrict as you look at items, such as muffins, closer (oculomotor)..
4. IV.  You look up at salesperson then down at your money as you pay (trochlear)..
5. V. You clench your teeth and touch your face when they called your drink (trigeminal)..
6. VI. You look side-to-side to see if anyone else has ordered the same drink (abdsucens)..
7. VII. You smile because you realize this IS your drink (facial), then..
8. VIII. You hear someone say “You can sit here, we are leaving” (auditory). As you sit..
9. IX. You taste the sweet whipped cream on the top of your drink (glossopharyngeal)..
10. X. You say “Ahhhh this is good!” (vagus)..
11. XI. You look at the person next to you because they heard you and then you shrug your shoulders (spinal accessory)..
12. XII. When they look away you stick your tongue at them (hypoglossal)!

I’ve always had a problem remembering the cranial nerves- looks like I found my solution. I’ll be thinking of this every time I get coffee now.
