So Linda’s writing prompt popped up on my reader feed and I laughed. Not because the topic “earworm” is hilarious, but because I was already in the grip of one.
Usually I develop earworms from singing along to the radio (how retro) or from a good movie sound track. However, todays earworm was passed on to me, like a Chinese whisper.
There I was, midway through a training run (my fun run race is in two weeks, eeeek!) when another runner approached from the opposite direction. Being the sociable runner I am I said “Hi”. He blanked me. How rude! And then I spotted his earbuds. Aha. He’s listening to music. As he got closer I realised he was singing along. I wondered what he was listening to. And that, dear readers, is when I caught it.
He was only singing the blooming “baby shark” song.
What the actual heck?!! Some playlist!
As we passed each other I swear that bloody song jumped into my ears and it’s been there ever since. I know what I need to do to get rid of it but am afraid I might make it worse by doing the actions!
Anyhoo…. here’s what’s stuck in my head… sorry.
Priceless! Now I have the giggles and an ear worm 🙂

haha! that’s funny to hear someone running along singing that song. My grand-daughter loves it, and they used to do the whole thing at library story time. So cute. 🙂

I had never heard/seen this before your post. A few hours later I was in an internet meeting and … this song was brought up again!
