At dinner the other night, Hummingbird stopped eating after a few bites to tell us that she was "chewing a tune." Then she asked, "Do you know what I mean?"
Daddy and I both understood, and Daddy said, "Of course, you're chewing to the beat in your head. I do that sometimes."
"Really?" I said, "that's so odd." I do quite a many odd things myself, but I don't chew my food to the music in my head.
So, we started wondering how many people have done/do this... Do you?
Hmm. No. On the other hand, sometimes I hear "theme music" in my head depending on what I'm doing. I know at the last [horrible] place I worked I heard the Imperial March from Star Wars every time I left the GYN clinic and walked down the hall to the lab. This was completely unintentional, but very appropriate.
ReplyDeleteDo any of you have any kind of synesthesia?
For me I see numbers as gendered. I also visualize whispering as black and white, and out-loud speech as color. As I said, I definitely have my own oddities.
