Stuck in my head

I listened to a repetitive song for about a minute today while reading an article, and now it is rehashing itself through my mind on automatic repeat.

It's amazing to me how easily some things can latch themselves into your mind. A phrase, a song, a lyric, a sound. A picture. An idea.

Often the sort of thing that sticks is just the sort of thing you'd sooner be rid of, especially where songs are concerned. Like the one in my head, although it is catchy enough that I have not yet bashed my head against the wall.

Every so often you have the joy of having something stuck in your head that you actually like. Don't underestimate these times. They are few and far between. Cherish them.

And if you have a method of getting rid of recurring jingles, let me know.
