It finally happened!
So maybe this sounds weird to you, but for as long as I can remember, I've had this reoccurring thing in my mind where I wonder if two radio stations are ever playing the same song at the same time.
I tend to flip between stations anyway, avoiding commercials and hunting for the right song amongst the six presets on my car stereo. But I'm not (typically) listening to any "hits" stations that are just cranking out the Top 40, which means these guys are usually working through catalogs of hundreds or even thousands of songs, many of which won't even overlap between any two stations. Anyway, the odds of two stations running the same song at any given moment are ridiculously tiny. But it's not impossible!
Because today, at 6:45pm Central, I casually flipped from
The Drive to
The Loop, only to hear the magical sound of...
the exact same song. I didn't believe it at first. I wanted to, but I thought maybe I hit the same button again by mistake. I thought maybe all
Boston songs just sound the same. No, it was real. I spent the next minute or so gleefully flipping back and forth between the two, reveling in a delight I had heretofore only imagined. I hope I didn't run a stop sign or something.
In the grand scheme of things, this probably isn't a big deal. But now, today, this moment, finally, I have it:
Peace of Mind.
