For your interest - remembered recently a professor I had at uni who studied the brain - and has discovered that we all switch back and forward from left to right hemispheres. You can test this in yourself by paying attention to your nose. Block one nostril at a time - you will find one will breathe freely and the other will be a little blocked. Try it every 15 minutes or so and you will notice that it changes throughout the day. Seriously, I just think it's pretty cool. For more info check out -http://www.uq.edu.au/nuq/jack/jack.html
BTW, the rate of this switching has implications for mental illnesses such as bipolar disorder and manic depression...
And, to see a similar switching process watch this animation - you'll see it rolling forwards or backwards, and then suddenly it will seem to go the other way. It's not changing - your brain is!
