I've returned to playing a lot of Sudoku, lately. I have a desktop version that I can blow up to a huge size, and it's easy to play while watching TV. I also have a small version for my iPhone that I play whenever I have a minute or five to spare.

I also have wicked mental lexilalia, right? Words totally stick in my head, and they rattle around there endlessly. And, if you play Sudoku, you know it's a whole lot of "1...1...1" and "5...5...5" as you try to figure out the missing numbers. I also have bad problems with earworms.

So naturally I have created the perfect storm for one song to live in my head for the last three weeks. Nonstop.

"i take one one one cause you left me and
two two two for my family and
three three three for my heartache and
four four four for my headaches and
five five five for my lonely and
six six six for my sorrow and
seven seven for no tomorrow and
eight eight i forget what eight was for and
nine nine nine for the lost gods
ten ten ten ten for everything everything everything"

Gordon, get the hell out of my head!!
