Pod People

Well, we're officially iPod people. MommLlama got a nano (pink, of course) and I got a classic. I'm just now loading up our last CD. Man, we have a lot of CD's. I bet a lot of you (Nicole and Travis) have way more than us, but it impresses me to see the bottom of the screen where it says over 2,000 songs equal to 5.6 days worth of tunes. That's pretty cool, I think. And what a weird variety we've accumulated. How's this for random.

Air Supply
Gene Autry
The Benedictine Monks of Santo Domingo de Silas
Andrea Bocelli
The Canadian Brass
The Carpenters
Phil Collins
Harry Connick Jr.
Aaron Copland
Bing Crosby
Maynard Ferguson
Norah Jones
Los Lonely Boys
Glen Miller
Rich Mullins
Outkast (Weren't expecting that one were you? It was given to me by a friend who probably thought I'd never listen to it.)
Santana
Bruce Springsteen
George Strait
U2
Veggie Tales
Andrew Lloyd Webber
Yanni
At least a dozen movie soundtracks - from Star Wars to Rocky to Dances With Wolves
Tons of classical stuff, including guitar, trumpet, cello, and flute soloists.

I'm totally psyched to have all that at my fingertips. Everyone else in my office has one, I think it will be nice to have some music and tune out the background noise while I work. And there are some really great blogs with podcasts that I have been wanting to listen to for some time. No more commercials in the car for me! And I'm sure we'll be adding to the collection with those 99 cent downloads.

iTunes

I've spent more time getting my songs onto my phone's iTunes thingy!!

It is great during nap time, I can be listening to my music, doing laundry, taking care of stuff in the house, and not keep closing my door or have the music so quiet I can't hear it!!!!

So what do I have on it?

Harry Connick Jr.: Red Light Blue Light
Santana: Supernatural
Beyonce (self titled)
WOW Hits 2006 (disc 1)
Los Lonely Boys: Heaven

In my stack to put on there:
WOW Hits 2006 (disc 2)
Nora Jones: Come Away With Me
Mark Harris: The Line Between The Two
North Texas March Band: Green Brigade

If you haven't noticed, I like a few different styles of music!

One month later...

I've had my phone now for 1 month... I really REALLY REALLY like it... but it has taken me an entire month to get my act together and start using the iTunes feature. So as I'm typing this blog, my phone is connected to my computer getting songs.

What songs you might ask... well, one of my favorite CD's... Harry Connick Jr.'s Red Light, Blue Light! Good work out music. Now you are thinking, this svelt youthful person doesn't need to work out (okay so that is the skinny person inside of me telling me that)...

Oh... it's done! Yeah... now I'm typing while listening to my phone play me music... awe, what a nice phone! Pinkie knows just what I want to hear!

The Same Thing We Do Every Night

So I got Pinkie on Valentines... now I have the Brain!

Oh how I do enjoy the color pink... and BLUE TOOTH... YEAH!!!!

Pinkie

It's kind of a joke around here... when DH has his performance review at work where they determine his bonus and raise... I get one too :-). This year I got a new phone! A pink phone... I've been wanting a pink phone for a really long time... and my plan was finally up for upgrade phone time at just the right time!

At 5pm Pinkie arrived. Awe, me likes!!! He's a phone, a camera, and he can play music too! He's a great little phone! YEAH PINKIE!

Thank you DH for my satisfactory evaluation!
