Alone...

Do you ever wake up with a song going through your head, and then you just can't shake it for the rest of the day? My song of the day is "Alone" by Heart, off of their 1987 "Bad Animals" album. I saw the video for this song last week, and apparently some type of delayed after-effect has taken place. Actually, I really like this song. Especially that one point where Ann (Or, was it Nancy? I could never keep those two straight. I just looked it up...it is Ann! That's right, Ann was the chubby siren, and Nancy was the blonde vixen.) just wails half way through the song!
I tried recreating the wail for Mrs. TBF this morning shortly after waking up, and my morning voice wasn't quite there yet. I'll have to work on it for when she gets home tonight.
Really, Mrs. TBF shouldn't complain too much. Over the Christmas holiday, I woke up one morning with the song "Hot Diggity" (not sure of the title) going through my head. You know the song..."Hot diggity, dog diggity, ooh what you do to me...). For about three days I just kept spontaneously repeating the song with obsessive-compulsive fervor. Plus, I replaced the "ooh" with a very resounding "BOOM!". At first, I think Mrs. TBF thought it was kind of funny. But after about three days, I do recall there being a rather threatening "enough already!".
Where the heck did that song come from? More importantly, how many of my blog readers...are now going to be humming that song for the rest of the day?

The song that's been running through my head today is "Cold as Ice" by Foreigner. I don't know why, maybe I'm having Jr. High Scool falshbacks or maybe I heard it in the supermarket or one of my co-workers was playing the classic rock station. Anyway it's driving me crazy.

You're both friggin crazy. How do you "retire" at the age of 44? You're a pampered house-frau.

Just for the record...I'm 42...not 44!
