Hey, do you

Hey, do you

Hey, do you guys ever get words stuck in your head? Today I have the words gossamer, inundated, and phosperence stuck in my head. Am I completely crazy, or does this happen to other people?

I know exactly what you mean. Only with me it's more phrases from books.

And I know that last comment sent this to the bottom of the queue, so this is to get it up again.

Except that didn't work...

I get words or phrases stuck in my head, too. Like if I'm reading a book, and there's usually this phrase that gets stuck in my head.... Example: I might be reading Ella Enchanted and get "We have to be dignified" stuck in my head all day. Then I can't fall asleep because I can't get it out.

No, Koffee, I think you're just completely crazy. :) Just joking.

Hahahaha! YOu crack me up! That was sarcasm in case you didn't catch on, but I think you might have a point there...

Yeah, this happens to me, too, so don't worry, Koffee, you're not crazy. Or if you are, then I must be, too. But that's not good, because I really wanted to go to college and get a book published someday! *Falls on the ground in hysterical sobs.* But yeah, I know what you mean!

All those words are sooooo great too say. If I had to say 3 words over and over again, I'd probably choose those ones. Sorry, just had to say that, that's how strongly I felt.

Today it's inquisitve, thrifty, and nonchalant (is that how you spell it?)

Don't worry. It happens to me to.

Hmm, I crack Koffee up. Good thing or bad thing?

Yes, you spelled "nonchalant" correctly.

You're right, that could be a very very very bad thing, but in my eyes it's good! I mean, it gives me something to laugh about on weekends other than jokes that I have made up in my own head involving bananas....

Today it's omnipotent, bezerk, and ambidextrous (I know that I totally butchered the spelling for that, but you get my point)

I get that only when I'm really concentrating hard on something. Like, for some reason, when we went snowboarding, I had a name I kept saying over and over and over. I don't know why. It was "Anselmo", and I only realized it was the name of a character in Inkheart when I got home. *shrug*

Never happened to me. Sorry.
