Maybe you have a more active inner life.

as a southerner and all around friendly person that says hi to everyone, i was very surprised while in dc that EVERYONE has earphones in everywhere they go. it was astonishing. the train at rush hour in the morning and evening was silent because no one talked to one another because of this modern technology. i hated it. can you imagine that in the south? people are just too talkative down here. i told one woman i liked her purse on the train and she just looked at me like i was crazy. well, excuse me for being nice!

Carolyn: it never ceases to amaze me how most folks seem to be afraid of their own thoughts. people look at me funny when i tell them that i ran 100 miles with no ipod (several times), or that i occasionally like to cut the radio off in my car and just listen to the sound of the road, or that i don't like to keep the tv on in my apartment just to generate background noise and "occupy my mind."
...or maybe the voices in my head just tell better jokes than everyone else's...

i haven't had the radio on in my car since christmas. i have come to enjoy the silence. although, i no longer know any current music or what is "cool". oh well. i like being in my own little world sometimes.
no tv for me either other than the occasional news broadcast or movie. i like the silence.
and y'all probably officially think i'm weird now. i guess i am. oh well :)

Trailing Aristotle - hate ipods at races, runners talk less during races, less interaction, are they trying their best to run or trying their best to zone out. Just bugs me, I want the banter, grunts, belches, the beauty of racing is facing the task without the mask.
