I JUST LOST MY MIND AND MY TEMPER (publicaly!) OVER...

...two things I cannot be trusted to discuss rationally...because I hate them.
And they are... CAUTION TAPE all over the school garden and CHAIN LINK, in general, unless it's
in West Side Story or covered in Morning Glories but that's different.

And now I have to go apologize.
This day is sucking.

What freaks out Silas????


...the eyes and the 'thump thump thump' she makes coming into the room due to her 3 legs.
She is the most harmless squishy fat cat ever...and the only animal that freaks him out!!!

Technology is Sucking Away My Health Points

In the book Eragon the main character learns to use magic but must be careful that he doesn't go too far because magic uses energy...and the amount spent is equal to the amount taken. So the spells need to be cleverly simple so as not to drain the life of the magician.

Well, I find a connection here between Eragon and his magic use and Me and my new IPod.
The possibilities at my fingertips are endless however it is SUCKING my LIFE away while I stumble my way through transferring my entire musical life into this 5" x 2 " box. And I am not gifted in this area.

The experience of listening to the jazz genre listed now on my IPOD is lovely ....but.....the reverse equal of this pleasure is the poke-my-eyes-out irritation of burning all my CD's onto ITunes and downloading my library. (Which turns out to be too big anyway....grrrrrrrr.)

And...The wonder of plugging in that teeny device thing that allows me to hear my IPOD on any radio is balanced by the fact that 30 minutes into the road trip the battery wears out and, since I cleaned my car of all my CD's thanks to the "simplicity" of the IPOD, there is now no music in my car at all.

This is very painful and I feel I need a technology secretary to take over. Mac tried but found I was too cranky to work with. Apparently that's another side effect.

And someone today suggested that I really should get an IPHONE....so I can do what, I ask....
blog in the car while I locate a vegan restaurant and discover the artist who is singing on the radio so I can, quick, buy it on ITUNES and download it into my studio/rock playlist?
I can't imagine the reverse effect that would have on my poor mind. I do believe I might just implode or simply snuff out. The opposite reaction to that many possibilities has to be
completely disappearing.
Yes?
