do you have yours? I find it therapeutic......Ill sit there for a good 10-15, even 20 minutes sometimes, and listen to nothing.. it does really get my head together sometimes.



Am I the only one that does this?

Im going to work right now. Once I get to work im going to sit behind a computer and listen to music via usb with foobar2000, flac files and headphone amp, my ipod, or my sansa clip.
I will spend the whole night not talking nor giving a damn about the outside world.

f your 10 mins of quiet time. I live in a chaos free zone.

I usually get a little break while kiddo is at school. Some peace and quiet is essential to sanity.

The two-hour drive from here to Sac and back for the past year has provided me with plenty of quiet time.

I get plenty of quiet time at home, but if the tv is loud or something and it's nice enough outside, I love to sit on my recliner on the balcony and stare up at the trees.

I'm an introvert, which isn't to say I'm a social maladroit... But I do need to recharge in some peace and quiet alone after a long shift of dealing with people on the phones. So I get out of work and just chill since I work at home.

I tried...then I yelled out 'WHY CAN'T I QUIT YOU???'

Then my customers looked at me funny. Then I asked them what they wanted to drink.
