I woke this morning at 2:50 am to Cher singing "Gypsies, tramps and thieves." Now I hear "Dr. Feelgood" by a band I can't remember who. The funny thing is that I haven't actually heard either song in years. I am always amazed at the song selections I hear.   I feel rather well today. It's earl...

    Hi Dave,

     

    If memory serves it was Motley Crue who did Dr. FeelGood in the 1980s or early 1990s.

     

    Yes, I googled it and they are the band that did that song.

     

    It must seem like your brain is a jukebox randomly selecting tunes that you would rather not listen to.  Distracting yourself is a good way to maintain control.

     

    I will send you the key lime pie recipe tomorrow.  I have found it in my recipes folder.

     

    Regards,

    Christina

     Christina,

     

    I sometimes think that there's a radio station in my head. I love music.

     

    When the lyrics keep repeating its easy to get back to a thought I may have missed. Its a circle. I'll think of something (when writing) and start typing. I think too fast and may lose the train of thought. I will wait for the lyric to start over and then the thought will come back. Does that make any sense?

     

    I sometimes do mind exercise to help me "put ducks in a row." I will think a string of 4 or 5 thoughts, then I will think backward until all the thoughts come back. I did that in school to help with the boredom.

     

    Have a nice day.

     

    Dave
