iPod

Nancy is getting an iPod. I want one. However, I don't know if I can ever justify spending that much money. Especially because I bought myself bartending classes and I'm going to Georgia for spring break, and I'm thinking of taking a plane out to Oberlin as an celebration of the end of school. My Discman is good enough... except it doesn't play all CD's. It likes to make certain burnt CD's sound fuzzy. Maybe I should invest in a new Discman...

I wish I knew the names and artists of the songs I grew up on. I know, I know, I didn't listen to the coolest music when I was young, but it has such emotional value. When I was real young I liked country music. There's one song that goes "when I hear that fiddle gonna beg for more!" I would so listen to that now if I had it. Maybe I didn't like all country music... Now that I think about it, there were maybe 3 or 4 songs that I loved, and I don't remember anything else.

If I did get an iPod, would I want a real one or a mini? 1000 songs is a lot, but is it enough? I have 2487 songs on iTunes right now, and that doesn't include all the CDs I own. Would I be satisfied with only half of my options in my iPod? I read/heard somewhere recently that people are less happy if they have more choices. The mini is smaller, more colorful, and cheaper. Decisions, decisions... not like I'm getting an iPod anytime soon.
