she doesn't give you time for questions

* * * when i was in Wisconsin, i used to go for random drives, just listening to the radio (my crappy Chevy Cavalier had a tape deck and...radio). so i listened to radio. radio in the heart of NPR and the midwest is good. i first heard Al Stewart coming back from looking at a condo, a place i was sure i wanted. modern. granite counters. convection oven. i was still living out of an ExtendedStay at the time, only a month or two into the move to Madison. but. But. Nothing seemed right. The complex seemed in foreclosure, my sixth sense was in overdrive. And driving out of there, a bright, sunny late October afternoon, I know there is no way in the world I am going to do this. But I hear this song come on my idiot car radio and think, maybe I've made the right choice. * 20\20. I used to think I had something to say. I spend my days watching Law & Order and House.

I'm there with you on midwestern public radio. It is the best.

Madison is nice.

I still think you probably have something to say. Glad you are posting here.

I'm trying. I feel I lost my voice a few months ago, and this should be the time I should be embracing it and making the most of it. I'm kinda lost for the first time and don't know what to make of it.
