Inadvertent Singing
“On her way to work one morning
[her? Surely you are a him, Mr. Chaotique?]
“By a path alongside a lake
[actually I was on a train going along a track]
“A tender-hearted woman
[ha! wrong on both counts]
“Saw a poor half-frozen snake
[saw some poor confused expressions, and . . .
Eh? What’s going on? I’ve got these songs in my ears, but has my mouth been moving? Oh blimey ‘eck, I’ve been singing. How long for? How loudly? And look at all these commuting people trying exceedingly hard to appear unfazed and ambivalent. Oh crickey. Look at all the manifest apathy. What a bunch of miserable communters they seem.
Anyway:
This morning, while on a crowded train, I had an iPod induced bout of inadvertent singing.
This week's commuting soundtrack has moved on from my atmosphere-altering random tune game, and has become what I thought was a one person Northern Soul festival. My joy did brimmeth over when I discovered during my first coffee / sanity / blog-reading break that I am not on my own. Thank you. MikeTroubled-Diva's Bloggers’ Disco now has a an astounding playlist, and appears to be getting suitably out of hand with its inability to know when it’s time to stop. So if you are yet to nominate a tune, then go do it now!
This is all way more interesting than the continual erosion of my budget at work, the Golden Grovel award my car insurance company is on the verge of winning (for making suitable amends for their most spectacular cock-up ever), or the fact that the majority of people in my office appear have embraced the guilt-cleansing spirit of collective wackiness that is red nose day by not turning up for work.
