if you don't want to spend $ on a long drive for music, why not go to your local library and borrow a book-on-tape? (they even have books-on-cd now if you don't have a cassette player. it's not as loserish as it sounds...well, i guess it is. but it's pretty fun.

i'd recommend getting a boring book (perhaps a foreign one, translated) that you'd probably never read (not 'you' you, but you as in people who don't have time to read such things), but is highly acclaimed and celebrated worldwide. liiike....i don't know...some melville would probably be good...or maybe hawthorne...or thomas hardy. books on tape are great for older novels that are harder to get through, because the readers are skilled at accentuating actions and key words that you'd otherwise miss, and would make comprehension a veritable thorny trek, do you see?? i'd also recommend getting a secondary book in case the first one sucks...more of a meaningless action-based book like a john grisham or a...umm...tom clancy. haha...listening to 'hunt for red october' would be insanely kickass just to say you did it. i bet the guy who reads it has a real gravelly voice. that's it. all books on tape are probably good or else they wouldn't have been tape'd. i'm listening to anton chekhov (sp!?) right now ('the kiss & other short ( ... )
