The RTRO

The setting is familiar. You're sitting in traffic. You're bored. A familiar tune comes on the radio. You start humming along with the melody. Before you know it, you're completely rocking out. Your head is moving, you're singing at the top of your lungs, and if you weren't restricted by the seat belt, you'd be performing dance moves worthy of an MTV Music Video award. My friend, you've just been the victim of The RTRO: The Random Traffic Rock-Out.

Well, the American Idol got busted today.
Here's the situation: I was driving to school. Being a little stressed out about life as a second year law student and and an upcoming test about hearsay, I was more than happy when a song that's been an iPod staple came on the radio. So I did what comes naturally to me: I cranked up the volume and went to town. Hell, I rocked that song. So imagine my surprise when I glance across traffic (at a stoplight) and see someone watching my performance.
Not just anyone. The guy in the Subaru Outback next to my car was hot.
I was faced with a choice: I could have pulled a Michael Bolton ala Office Space, compl

Here's the kicker: HE WAS LISTENING TO THE SAME RADIO STATION! And not only was he listening to the same station, he was singing along and dancing, too! Granted, it was the subdued "male" dancing... above the neck only. But considering the song, it made my day.
The song? "Behind These Hazel Eyes" by Kelly Clarkson.
Seriously, how awesome is that? That was a situation that could have made me squirm, but instead I left that intersection still singing. Needless to say, my day was made. And it was only 7:55am.
