Every song I listen to reminds me of you.

There isn't always empathy in giving advice any more than information from the elderly is sage.

Do you ever listen to so much music that when it's silent and you're reading something the words sound like a song in your head?

Not so much with music, but I frequently have a similar experience with poetry. If I switch abruptly from reading poetry to reading prose, my brain keeps trying to find a metre in the prose when there isn’t one.

You do that too?  Sometimes I have to force myself to eat after realizing I haven't in a day or two.

I used to work with a woman who arrived in the morning already planning where she was going to get lunch.  Boggled my mind.  I am just not obsessed with food and would gladly take a pill like The Jetsons did.

For them, I think it just becomes a part of their routine. One woman at work always brings her midnight meal and eats it at the beginning of the shift.
