I have noticed some of the same things. I think you are on to something; and that makes me especially happy because I've been blaming it on too much beer!
Glad to know it's really my increasingly dull job!
Interestingly, I, too, often wake up with a song in my head. And, when there is no "known" song, I realize that I've instead been hearing a tune I made up. I can never duplicate the tune at any other time of day, and sometimes it takes awhile in the morning before I realize, "hey, that's my tune!"
To stray even further off-topic - my dad had his own tune, too. His was sort of half-whistled, and only while he was working with his hands in his basement workshop. And
that tune I can remember clearly whenever I wish. Hmmmm....
I'm very interested to hear others' thoughts on Val's intriguing musing!
