This week i've been conducting experiments to answer the question of how much Simon & Garfunkel is too much? I don't know what's wrong with me, but I brought the "Old Friends" boxed set to work last Thursday and have listened to it almost every day since. I don't even think I like them that much, it's more that I've had various songs of theirs swimming around in my head for the past five days and can't seem to knock them out. As soon as "Keep the Customer Satisfied" jumps out, "Cecelia" crams its way in. When "Cecelia" gets tired of playing, "So Long, Frank Lloyd Wright" takes over her shift. And so I keep listening over and over, hoping to scratch my Garfunkel-infected itch, but nothing seems to work. It's to the point where I turned off my
last.fm stats because it's too embarrassing. Do they make a salve or a cream for this, I wonder?
The irony is that according to my much outdated "recently" stats over on the right there, the last time I was in the posting mood I was also afflicted with this disease. Perhaps I should also conduct an experiment on the correlation of Simon & Garfunkel to my posting patterns.
