Sixpence The Richer "There She Goes"

After taking a few days off to have my wisdom teeth removed, the co-host of a radio show I once produced cornered me and said, "I will pay you top dollar for your leftover Vicodin." I didn't know what opioid addiction was back then, but the warning signs were there. She often started each day asking the morning team: "Which pill should I take today?". Not only that, she was the first person I ever knew with Attention Deficit Disorder. She frequently would tire of conversations midway through (on-the-air) and would interject by saying "new topic" and move onto a different subject. The only things that seemed to keep her attention were dogs and a zoo webcam that featured pandas.
