The soundtrack of my life

Let me preface this by saying that all of my friends know I'm a little weird, but in a sweet, funny way, not in a stalker or cabin in the woods kind of way. They appreciate my funny quirks or even my savant-like ability to quote from movies after just seeing them once. (If only I could use this power for good instead of nonsense!)

So yesterday I revealed to my husband and to my friend, that I have certain soundtracks that go on in my brain at certain times. For example, I work with a manger one some cases whose name is Diana. Whenever I see her name on IM or I have to call her or even see that I'm on a new case with her, immediately, Michael Jackson's "Dirty Diana" turns on in my brain.

And when I hear that another coworker, like yesterday, has gotten a job in another department, immediately Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust" is blaring. 

I can't help it, it just happens. Every instance has a theme song. Like when I think about Jeff and my marriage and our life together, Jennifer Hudson's "All Dress Up In Love" comes on. And when Jeff started talking about our pug's "dribbly nose" last night, that stupid song, "How Much Is That Hound Dog In The Window?" played (over and over and over!). But when I think of our other pug, "The Wild Colonial Boy" by the Clancy Brothers plays. (Only when it plays in my head, it's "Wild Colonial Pug" - Jeff's rendition.)

I even had some songs in my head for when I was dating. They mostly consisted of angry chick music, but they were still part of my soundtrack. When Jeff and I got engaged, it was "All the Single Ladies" by Beyonce. LOL 

It's just one of my many quirks that either entertain or annoy. Jeff and my friend seemed pretty entertained at this quirk. I'm not sure Jeff was as equally thrilled when I called him "Jeff-fa-fa" for a week after watching Jeff Dunham's new act. It pissed him off-fa-fa. Tee hee hee..... 

If you don't laugh, you'll cry! So giggle it up!
