Talk or Music

Now don't get me wrong I like American Idol and all, but I dont know being BP I like to keep my mind running. Music just doesn't do it for me. When I am going to sleep I will turn on the music but during the day and especially in the morning I like Talk, and when I am awake.

Talk on the am news, Talk radio in the car, Talk on the computer (emails), Talk on DS (music threads drive me nuts lol).

Anyone else a Talk junkie? especially obsessive like me...

I like both, but in the morning I listen to talk radio. I like the feeling of familiar people being around, and the voices that I hear every morning on NPR soothe me.

I have been notorious at my last few jobs when having nothing to do, avoiding the manager and just wandering around and talking to people in different departments.

I engage people in conversation when I am on the job so much; I am often very late to the next gig.

I also leave people harassing prank phone messages and have a habit of going off on hilarious tangents during meetings. I call my boss playahh and call his boss "Jimmy".

Not everybody appreciates a clown though. I am told I have to try and keep my arms and head inside my truck more at work.

Then I come home and there is no one here. I do have a date though Friday! I think she likes to talk too talk a lot too. and she has a cool dog (that is a super plus)
