Sound track to your life

Haha ... you have a song from Rent! [/insidejoke]

 

I realized looking at mine that I need to put some more stuff on it . . . I have NO Nirvana on there at all yet. That's just wrong.

 

Looks like I need to get you some good music as a wedding gift, spup.

 

Muahahaha. I know, right?

But last year, when I got a new car--new being a subjective term, it was newer than dead, which my previous car was--I really wanted the satellite radio. I could not justify getting both satellite radio and an IPod, so my wife and I decided I'd get the satellite radio at Christmas 2005 and she'd get the IPod sometime the following summer.

We can, of course, share the IPod. But a.) I'd probably break it and b.) I don't want to surf thru all her crap to find my good stuff.

One of these days I'll win one or something.

 

Ouch. I actually have a ton of music on my itunes and a lot of country which never seemed to come up on my shuffle. My "wedding song" was actually one of the songs I'd downloaded as wedding music and was appropriately titled, "Wedding songs..."

 

BYH: save your marriage, spend $80 and get a shuffle.

I think it's entirely appropriate that my "wedding song" on this list (Today - Smashing Pumpkins) is the definition of sarcasm.

 

I don't have an iPod. I did find one of the many programs on my laptop that stores downloaded music, however, and that did the trick.

A co-worker tried to explain how her iPod mini (is that it?) works, but it looks like too much work.

 

Aren't those the ones with room for only a few hundred songs?

I'd like to hold out for one that has room for thousands and thousands of my favorite crappy tunes!!!!

 

The iPod mini is actually really easy Pal. I just hook it to my computer and it does all the work. When I want to listen to music, I just put it on shuffle and listen to whatever.

 

One of these days I'll have to break down and get with the times. One of these days.

Speaking of ITunes, I have a small collection of songs I picked up randomly from Limewire, but can I just go to an ITunes site and download for free to bulk up my collection, or do I have to pay?
