Different songs, but it works better than anything I wrote above.

Hahahaha-- the earworm conquers all!

Not that it's funny when it happens to me. All last Friday was "Dani California," though at least it's less aggressive than CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

Asking for the points of that phone conversation in writing was genius. :)

I loved this! You do such fantastic humorous dialogs/monologs. This is such a common experience, and I hate it when it happens. Perhaps you should have stayed home from work: "I'm sorry Boss, I can't come in today. I have a song in my head."

Thank you!

I hate it when a song gets stuck in my head, too.

I hate it when i song gets stuck in my head and permeates the rest of my day no matter what I do. Wonderful take on this weeks topic.

Thank you so much! Despite the frustration of having the song stuck in my head, this was fun to write.
