Re: CPW: Driving Entertainment

  • Most of the time it's the radio, but sometimes when I can't find anything "good" on I'll listen to one of the CDs in my changer that I haven't changed in 2 years.  :)

  • It depends on if I'm alone or if H or others are with me. If I'm alone I love listening to audio books, if I'm with H we tend to listen to NPR podcasts or music from our iPod/iPhone.

    "People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."

  • If H is driving, I'm reading or hand-sewing.  If I'm driving, or if we're driving a short distance, it's the radio or MP3 player.

  • Pretty much always the radio. I've got a couple of random CDs on hand, but they rarely get played. And there's no input jack for my phone, so no MP3s.

  • Sometimes in the mornings I don't listen to anything. Just silence.
  • I listen to the radio on my drive to work and sometimes from work. Sometimes on my drive home I'll talk on the phone, but more often than not I just drive in silence and enjoy the quiet. For road trips, we tend to listen to sermon series, books, or the radio. :)

  • In the mornings, I like listening to the morning show on the radio.  Driving home from work, H and I usually talk or we'll listen to the radio depending on our moods.

  • Radio always. I love listening to music in the car. Turn it up real loud and sing my heart out. Lol, I think I sound great, when the music is loud anyway. When with my H, we have the radio on, a lot quieter than when I am solo. I don't like silence, the car is my music time.

  • DH got me into the habit of driving without the radio, so in my car it is usually just a phone call (at least until he gets my radio replaced with a Bluetooth). In his car I usually do listen to music from my phone since it has the Bluetooth built in.

  • I also talk on the phone if its during the work day, since thats the only way I can bill (aka get paid) to drive from client's house to client's house
