Waking Up With Songs In My Head

Getting up is never easy for me, as I've stated before on this very blog. However, it's getting to that point of year that not only am I tired when I wake up, I'm very cold. This makes getting out of bed even harder. Yesterday I told me husband  he was mean even though my refusal to get up made him like half an hour late to work. That is silliness and I should not be quite so whiny. It seems like this shouldn't be such a big deal anymore. I've had to get up every single day my whole life. The drama behind this issue should really have faded with almost 21 years of practice. But I digress. I didn't come here today to tell you all what we all already knew - that getting out of bed in the morning, especially when its cold, is a slow and most unfortunate process.

I came here to tell you that for the past few days I have woken up with very random things in my head. For example, earlier this week I woke up with a Christmas poem my family reads every year in my head. I opened my eyes and all the sudden my brain's like, "I did want crackers, and I did want candy. I know a box of chocolates would come in handy. I do like oranges, and I do like nuts...I haven't got a pocket knife...not one that cuts! And oh Father Christmas, if you'd loved me at all, you'd have brought me a bright red India rubber ball." And then it stayed in my head FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS.

Me - sitting in Conditioning for Injury Prevention Class which for some unholy reason begins at 7 am: Wow. Dieting is bad for you and leads to eating - I DID WANT CRACKERS, AND I DID WANT CANDY.

Luckily, that was all just in my head. I didn't have a crazy manic outburst. Not that that's totally unrealistic with me, but whatever.

Both yesterday and this morning as I laid in bed and reluctantly opened my eyes the first coherent thought to pop up in my brain was "Iiiiiiiiiiiiii gotta make this riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight, make it the way it's supposed to be! That's my OCD!"

Here's a link to that song so you can all understand exactly how exciting this experience was.

Then, naturally, on my way to school I told Trenton that the OCD song was stuck in my head. So, being the psychology major that he is he decided to redo the song in a more accurate way. Something like "Iiiiiiiiiiii have an obsession with things being neat! And then I have a compulsion to fix them! It's a disorder!" That wasn't it exactly but it was pretty great.

Anyway. It's a strange experience I've been having lately but that's alright. Many worse things could happen.
