Page Layout ⇒ Bizarrre Fancyhdr Problem

[rpayne77]

I am using the fancyhdr package for the first time, and have run into the following issue: the first line of my document gets sucked into the header! No matter how many new lines or new pages I put in front of my first line, when I compile the document, it ends up in the left header. Any advice?

My preamble:
\pagestyle{fancy}
\fancyhead{}
\fancyhead[RO]{Cognitive Models \qquad \thepage}
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}
\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0pt}
\setlength\parindent{0.25in}
\begin{document}

\begin{flushleft}
Running head: Cognitive Models
\end{flushleft}

These code snippets alone have no validity. Build a minimal working example (MWE) that shows the effect you described.
