Go on then name a song.......

So I got an iPod for my birthday from the BF...fantastic..I have wanted one for....well for at least 6 months. I can listen to my music everywhere I want to now on the way to work (er...I work from home) at the gym (er......well the membership kinda ran out 2 years ago) whilst rollerblading around Central Park (except I live in South London). You know everywhere.

The BF already had his and with some juggery pokery added his collection of God-Awful music to mine to keep me going until my p.c. was feeling better (the p.c. illness a long long story). The thing is, he and his best fiend had already been through this process with the best friends music collection. So here I am with a 60Gb iPod the 5k++ tunes on none of which I would choose to listen to even if both my eardrums spontaneously burst into flames. Celine Dion, Janet Jackson and Aqua's ENTIRE back catalogue are just a few names that I've come across so far. If I had lost the iPod at that point I would deny ownership should anyone attempted to hand it back.

But my p.c is now back from the p.c. rehab and so I begin the arduous task of adding My wonderful music collection.......except I've got over 400 cd's and I am board already. Importing.... star rating....genre......playlist.............aaaargggggggggghhhhhhh. The BF says it's a great way to back-up your cd collection. Back-up? What in case there's a nuclear holocaust and the cockroaches demand a digitally remastered version of Sex Pistols "Anarchy In The UK" as their call to arms anthem?

I think not baby-puppy.

What it does mean is that I can box up all my cd's and put them in the loft thus freeing up space on my bookshelves so that son-and-heir can put his collection of Horrid Henry, Dr. Suess & Mr. Men along side my Simone De Bouviour, Carl Rogers & Jane Green.

Oh well I guess I'd better add just one more cd before I go to bed........ah good we're up to the "M's"...........................
