"sometimes I give myself the creeps. Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me. It all keeps adding up, I think I'm cracking up."
This greenday song is becoming my personal anthem. I hear it in my sleep. It is background music at my weddings. Sometimes it gives me the creeps how much like me it is.
Not that I think I am crazy, but that I think everyone loses their mind on a regular bases. Not regular as in, at specific predestined times, but as in you-get-plenty-of-bran regular.
At work I get extremely busy from time to time and singing helps me stay focused. I do not hum, or whistle but sing out loud. Very loud. So loud in fact that often I hear guest on the other side of the cafe singing along with me.(It is quite possible I suppose that they are singing so as to not here my wretched voice also.)
"Basketcase" is the only one I sing though. And this is not just of late, but roughly six years. Which works out to about 2 wives 2 children, 6 different jobs, 67 employees, 12 supervisors and inumerable amount of customers.
It goes away when I take my little pink pill.

You should worry, Mind you Im not surpriesd once anyone has gone through two wives etc. They are bound to be awaiting the little men with their white coats coming! I mean ONE divorce, yea, thats but TWO you must love wedding cake!!
Smudger.

My bad habit is walking along, fully believing that I'm singing in my head. Then, while trying to work out why everyones staring at me, I realise I'm singing out loud. And its usually something REALLY annoying, like Steps or S Club 7!

Can you imagine walking the streets singing 'REACH FOR THE STARS...' the memories make me cringe...

what about when you get a commercial jingle stuck in your melon like "come see the softer side of sears"? yuck!

A truly embarrasing moment for me was when I realised that I had actually sung out loud (at a bus stop), the cartoon theme tune I had been silently singing in my head for about a week. If I remember right, it is just a tune for the most part with the only sung phrase being the title of the cartoon. at least that is how I was singing it. The cartoon? .... Angry Beavers.

With me, cartoons is usually the raccoons or the Treacle People.
