When I had a coworker here in my office/dept (who also ended up being, and still is, one of my best friends ever) I used to do a funny little thing... the copier was on her side of the office, right behind her desk. So whenever I would walk over there to make copies I'd absent-mindedly-but-totally-on-purpose hum some tune that was 1) catchy, 2) almost universally recognizable, but 3) not something she'd be likely to hear during a normal day and therefore "pick up" unconsciously.
The payoff would come later that day when she'd suddenly look up and say "WTF I've got 'Chattanooga Choo-Choo' stuck in my head and I can't get it out!"
*sigh* Good times.  |
But you are good at singing, so think of something else,
