My own private alprazolam
What would that be? Music. Period. Always has been. Always will be. So often now I forget how much it helps me over the roughness, the stress, the brow beating. Gave myself an MP3 player for Christmas a few years ago. Best thing I ever wasted money on. My only problem is that 20G isn't big enough. Going to have to upgrade the hard drive.

what a wonderous playlist! you have inspired me to make a new one on my iPod!
I think that there should be a radio station somewhere run by YOU, so I could listen to it all day long!

You are too kind. I would be perfectly happy doing just that; playing music all day and getting paid for it.
