The flu and the evil of teletubbies

Whaddaya know, it was the flu. It really, really was. I've gone propelling straight into I-wish-I-could-curl-up-in-a-litte-pale-ball-and-die-mode. It's a sunny, lovely day and I'm wearing big pants, a huge sweater and shivering with cold. The only thing that keeps me from topping it all of with a scarf, is that I'd have to go upstairs and find one, and I don't have that kinda energy.

As if that wasn't enough, I can't get the damn teletubbies to stop singing their theme song in my head. "Tinky-Winky, Dipsy..." Somebody, make them stop! They're evil, little trolls who attack the young and the sick.

And now, if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go see what I can do about that curling-up-into-a-ball-thing...

I often deal with songs replaying in my head while I'm sick. I think it is fever or something. And it is usually an annoying theme song or jingle.

I heard somewhere that songs like that get stuck in your head, because your brain is re-living a happy moment. I can't for my bare life figure out which happy moment my brain is assosiating with telletubbies... So yeah, it's probably the fever:)
