| 0:53.7 | I can't do it. Or really, I won't do it. I mean, I'm |
| 0:58.2 | sure I'm missing out on a lot of stuff, but in the end, who really gives a shit? I get by just |
| 1:02.9 | fine, thanks, except for one thing, music. I love to listen to music. It's one of the three or four |
| 1:09.1 | things I enjoy most in life. |
| 1:11.7 | When I was in high school and college, we had a record player. |

| 2:13.8 | straightforward system that is utter and complete bullshit. But here I am, they say, |
| 2:20.0 | with every song ever recorded. And I think they're like a hundred million songs on Spotify or |
| 2:24.8 | something all right there at my fingertips. And how often do I listen to music in my own home? |
| 2:30.3 | If I'm alone, never. Seriously, I'm not kidding you. Never. And what a giant loss that is. Our house used to be filled with music. I remember making cassette tapes of playlists when our kids were born. Oh my God, music for nap time, music for waking up. Just music. Our house was full of music.
