Sometimes, I have to get out, even when it feels like it’s 40°C outside, because I need my music loud, and I need to fucking strut, and the birds clear the way cause they know it’s serious, cause the pictures are fucking killing me, so I’ll just keep skipping songs until it hits me then I’ll CRANK IT until it hurts, walking it off like it’s nobody’s business, dancing inside to the bass pounding in my ears.
I’ve already started. It’s very cold in Boston, and I just can’t stand it. Even though I haven’t broken out the Uggs, I do crank the music in my car because it warms my soul and makes me feel good inside. So that’s what I do.
Would that I could walk, but I must quote the Missing Persons regarding L.A. … the car has to suffice. Have to watch that my driving doesn’t actually become affected by my tunes. Got ticketed for that once. Woopsy. Not road rage but something to do with a particular scream of Roger Daltry’s. But that was a long time ago.
If it weren’t for my iPod I would fucking lose my sanity. Seriously.
Steve Jobs can go to his grave in peace knowing that lives were saved by keeping me from becoming a disgruntled postal sawed-off-shotgun toter.
“the birds clear the way cause they know it’s serious”
That’s fucking awesome.
@cristina — Driving fulfils me in a different, though also satisfying, way. It doesn’t have to be fast, but there does have to be movement.
@Xibee — Interesting that music can affect your speed. For me it’s more my mood.
My iPod keeps me company too, everywhere I go. I have special playlists for certain moments, and just like you, I’m sure this has saved my sanity on more than one occasion.
@Tiana — As with many of my images, that one is taken from real life. I’m not creative enough to come up with stuff like that on my own.
Interesting content and i will fully agree as music gives me the strength,speed, and peace too. So surely one should try this.
