Follow up to addiction thread

There was a thread on here the other day about being addicted to Buffett and how there was no known cure (thank God). Here's a little story I can add (not really that big of a deal, but something.)
I had Off to See the Lizzard playing in my car CD player the other day, and right as I pulled into my driveway, Changing Channels, the very last song on the album, started. What did I do? I parked in my driveway and sat there and listened to Changing Channels. There was no way I was getting out of the car when that song was playing. I must have looked so silly sitting there parked in the driveway listening to music. Fortunatley, at the time, I was the only one home, so my family wasn't there to laugh at me. I'm not sure if any of my neighbors saw me. But, you know what, I didn't care; just because I was home doesn't mean I had to get out of the car!

I do that almost every day!
When I get to school, I almost always finish the JB song that is playing before I get out to start the day!
And then I find myself humming that song until I can get back in the car and hear the next tune

Yup, I do that all the time. I mean really, how often are you in a hurry when you're in your car listening to Buffett. Everything else seems kind of....unimportant

After I get off the highway, I let the song that is playing finish, and then I turn on the radio, otherwise I'll be trapped for DAYS!

Sounds perfectly normal to me.

Why on earth would anyone not finish listening to a Buffett tune?

Um...I do that all the time when I arrive at work! Usually I'm singing along too! The people at work all know I'm on the unconventional side anyway....
However, I usually need to be sure to censor which song I'm signing along with when I go through the security gate.
Wouldn't pay to scandalize the security guards.....

At least you pull into the driveway! I sometimes drive around the block repeatedly until the song ends. My husband has spotted me, and asks what the heck I'm doing... when I tell him, he just

Sitting in your car to listen to the finish of the song is an addiction( One that I am certainly guilty of!

) But besides that it should be against the law to turn off Changing Channels!
