I haven't been singing songs while washing my hands, as that would make me hate the songs. But I watched a clock now while singing Happy Birthday in my head*, and have realized that they *DON'T* mean you can sing it as fast as possible, because that only takes about 10 seconds to sing it twice. You have to sing it at the *NORMAL* speed twice. Which is probably hard if you're in a hurry or bored and wanting it to get done faster, consciously or not.
*Wait. Those people who can't talk to themselves in their head must not be able to sing to themselves in their head either? Huh.
There seems to be a problem with today's Dreamwidth Password announcement email. I got it 4 times for this account, and now twice for my other account.
I also was of the impression that saying "Mississippi one" (etc.) as fast as possible took about a second. But even that takes less than a second. It has to be spoken fairly fast, but not that fast.
A zig-zag stitch allows for stretching:

That's what I need to use on my worn sweatshirt cuffs. I will cut off a narrow section around the cuff where it has worn apart, fold the inner and outer pieces of cloth inward, and then use a zig-zag stitch to sew them back together. Hopefully it will look better than the frayed cuffs do.
Came across another one of Man Man's songs which I like, Engwish Bwudd. Good tribal belly-dancing too.

I wonder if those songs are maybe familiar to me from over a decade ago, when they came out, and that is why I like them. I don't remember them but that doesn't mean I didn't hear them on the radio back then.
