I look forward to listening to the morning show as I drive into work each day. There are three people: two men and a woman. They don’t play any music, they just talk.

They usually have a few features to take up time: news, weather, sports, that kind of thing. But what I really like is when they’re just talking about their lives. For example, one of them really likes sci-fi (I do too), and the woman’s pregnant right now and is always complaining about her aches and pains.

During a commercial today, I thought I’d call them. Not to get on the radio (I can’t imagine anything worse than hearing my voice on the radio). Just to let them know how much I enjoy their program, maybe tell them how they’re almost like real friends to me.

And then I thought about how it would sound to them: some guy calls, saying how three people he’s never met are his best friends in the world.

Pathetic.

I’m so glad I didn’t call. I know I’d be kicking myself right now if I did. I guess.
