Now I understand

...the lure of iPod. My sister finally got mine working, so after I downloaded my tunes to it, I put in the headphones and hit play. Instantly, it was as if the world around me had disappeared. There were actually two people in my living room who were having a heated discussion, but once the music started, I couldn't hear them. I quickly discovered that if I closed my eyes, they (and the stress) were completely gone from my consciousness. No wonder these little things are so popular!
