I don't listen to music the first time.
Well, I listen to it in the sense that it is played within my hearing; but I don't listen to music in the sense of seeking it out and listening to it; the only time I'm intentionally listening to music is to use it as white noise downing out other noise, I'm not actually paying any attention to it. This is why I for four years had an iPod nano with the same 100 songs on it and despite "listening" to it for several hours a day at work I still couldn't tell you what was on it.
But my quest for the new (I do it with road trips too, a boring drive on a road I've never been on before is better than an exciting drive on a road I've traveled many times) is probably why gambling is my only real vice. I don't care about winning or losing (since I don't gamble in amounts that would cause me any great pain to lose or any great wealth to win) it is simply that I don't know what is going to happen.
