when I have Alzheimer's...

fflo. . . you'll probably find me, while I'm thinking people in the room are others who are long-dead & like that, singing the theme from "L.A. Law." Who knows why, but it's burned into my grey matter pretty good, as I find myself humming or whistling it to myself, or just hearing it in my head, shockingly often. Eight or ten times a year, easy.
Where does it come from? What prompts it? I'm reasonably certain it isn't playing regularly in supermarket Muzak loops. Is there a strain that reminds me of it, scooting my mental needle over into that groove (or whatever the laser equivalent for CDs would be)?
I don't even particularly like the song. I guess I did watch the show somewhat faithfully, at least during that little spell with the (still rare at the time) lesbian subplot & kiss action.
Still.

Re: I have a song like that too
Date: Aug. 25th, 2004 10:04 am (UTC)Holly used to have a habit of starting to whistle (or hum) whenever I did---but a different song. Possibly to drown me out! I dunno---she didn't seem to know she was doing it. It was as if I'd just put out the idea of sharing one's internal soundtrack.
I meant to bet somebody I could make her whistle. Alas! ---another lost opportunity.
