People,

So, I think I may have a new, as yet undiagnosed neurological disorder. When it is finally diagnosed and properly written up in the medical journals I would like it to be known as Thumbkinism Welshititis.

What is my current problem?

Well, at least twice a day, everyday, I catch myself singing "Where is Thumbkin?" or it's Freedom equivalent "Frere Jacques". Sometimes I'll just be humming it, but at other times I'll be full on belting that catchy little number out. Sometimes in an accent, sometimes like a Broadway singer. I literally can't seem to get it out of my head.

And it's only this song, not something cool like "The Wheels on the Bus" or "Apples and Bananas". My only saving grace is that I haven't started doing the little Thumbkin hand-signal dance, or maybe I secretly am but I don't realize it yet.

Jesus.

This is hilarious. You should come over. Jason LOVES this song! At the end he sings: "Run awaaaay, run awaaaay". It's really cute.

Dude. I totally know what you're dealing with. For me, it's "I'm A Little Teapot" -- I'm constantly waking up with it in my head, or I start to say something and it comes out all teapotty. I often change the words, though, to echo my environment. For example, let's say the cat is in the room. Well, then, it's: "I'm a little fuzzkins, meow, meow meow. Please give me Beef Feast now now now."
