"The world's greatest mix tape"

Well, last Wednesday was my Birthday and I was lucky enough to get an iPod!

I am really enjoying it. Like my sister said, the iPod is like the world's greatest mix tape. Coming from someone who made numerous mix tapes in the 80's and 90's, I really appreciate that line of thinking.

I walked through Giant on Thursday with my iPod on and I almost didn't mind being there and doing food shopping. I cleaned the house this morning listening to the strangest musical combinations (O.A.R.->The Little Mermaid->Green Day->Yeshiva Boy's Choir...). My kid were home and they enjoyed watching their mother looking like a fool singing and dancing around the house.

My only concern is that I will prematurely lose my hearing, because I really enjoy listening to music loudly. Please don't let my father read that. Between all the weddings I've been to and the occasional concert, he thinks that I will be deaf by 40 (yes, he wears earplugs to weddings). Well, here's to 11 more great years of musical enjoyment!

Now would be a good time to learn lip reading ;)

I love my ipod. It stops random strangers from talking to me for hours and hours on airplanes. You can even get them for free. All you need to do is register for something that generally is free or under $10 (and make sure to cancel before the month is up) and get friends to do the same. That's how I got my trial month of Blockbuster online. :) Check out the following for various things you can get for free or close to it. :)
