Let's pull out the old soap box.
I tend to judge people on campus who put in their headphones
the minute they exit a building,
then take them out 3 minutes later
when they reach their next class.
To me it says,
"You're not interesting enough to live inside your own head for 5 minutes
without music to distract you."
Do you have a personality?
Disclaimer: I do it sometimes when I'm walking to the grocery store.
That's it.
Rebuttals welcome.
I feel fully chastised. You are absolutely right. I definitely do this, and the sad thing is, I probably won't quit.

It's a happy medium. Sometimes, its nice to have some background music to the movement of life, something to inspire or energize you. Other times you need to do as Arthur says:
ReplyDelete"Listen to your heart
Listen to the beat
Listen to the rhythm
The rhythm of the street
Open up your eyes
Open up your ears
Get together and make things better
by working together.
Its a simple message
That comes from the heart
Oh believe in yourself
For that's the place to start
And I say, Hey!
What a Wonderful kind of day,
where we can learn to work and play,
and get along with each other!
Hey!
What a wonderful kind of day
Hey!
What a wonderful kind of day
Hey!!!"
Yup, that was all from memory.
