Shiny toy!
Mar. 24th, 2007 02:40 pmWhee! I bought an iPod Nano today. I've wanted one for a while, but couldn't justify spending the money. Finally decided that a) I deserved it, and b) it would help motivate me to workout at the gym where I'm usually surrounded by TVs blaring programs that drive me crazy.
So it's a "To Patricia, From Patricia, Happy Early Birthday" present. A very big deal for someone who remembers back when the dividing class line was who could afford a Sony Walkman and who couldn't. I was on the have-not side of that equation, so this is also a bit of delayed gratification.
Anyway, cheerfully loading CDs and investigating options for sports holders. Looking forward to the gym tomorrow!
