An Unwelcome Visitor
Stuff I hate May 23rd, 2009Been three weeks since the day we became one.
Three weeks of sheer torture.
I wake up to it.
I shower with it.
I cook with it.
I go to work with it.
It’s with me right now.
It haunts me.
It’s sneaky. It’s merciless. It’s painful.
It may never leave.
But I don’t want it.
And I can’t take it.
I want peace.
I need to quiet the voices in my head!
The voices of ….. The Pointer Sisters.
Yeah, the song I heard over a grocery store speaker three weeks ago.
They’re. Still. Here.
Someone once told me the best way to rid yourself of an earworm is to give it to someone else.
Else, it’s all yours:
Stumble it!

Trade Show Guru Steve — Not dumb at all. I knew you wouldn’t click it. Since I wrote this, I was free of the song for three days. Then it came back for a little while yesterday. But I think I’m OK again. This thing is downright evil!

I’m sorry I can’t click on the song but the voices in my head won’t allow it. Apparently they hate the Pointer Sisters. However, they inform me that I may listen to the Monkeys, Elvis, 3 or 4 Barry Manilow songs (they refuse to be specific), Gladys Knight but only one Pip.

I remember this jam! Used to listen to it with my mom back in the day. That first girl is singing low though! Lower than El Debarge!

thephantombloggerstrikes — OK, I’ll ask. Which Pip? OMG, I haven’t heard the Monkeys mentioned in ages. And would you believe all I can think of is their TV show theme song?
Urban Clothing Guy — I’m afraid to go back and listen for the low-singing one. The song has been banished from my head for a couple weeks now, thankfully. No need to start it up again.

Kathy, I was wrong about the Pip. I guess I didn’t hear the voices very well. They apparently said PIMP! I am embarrassed now because I know so many Pim….uh I mean I don’t know any PIMPS. Yeah, that’s right, no PIMPS! Not one single PIMP! Whew, I’m glad that is all straightened out. It is, right? Remember, NO PIMPS! La La La!
*voices speak* no pimps huh? Here she comes walking down the street…street walker, get it? not amused? we know your voices and they love…Y M C A it’s fun to stay at the Y M C A-A……..tee hee!
