Where is Your Mind?


So, I've had this question in my mind for, I'd say, the last year-and-a-half, ever since I belatedly got my iPod. I say belatedly because if you know me personally, you know that I tend to want music most all the time, and it felt like somewhat of an injustice to hear of friends who had gotten iPods for Christmas, birthdays, or whatever, YEARS ago, and only had like 20 songs on them ... even for months and months and I was still faithfully rocking the compact disc.

I remember one Christmas in particular, not many years after the iPod came out, a friend saying she thought she was going to take her recently received iPod back because she never used it and didn't think she ever would. I kind of heard that, nodded my head a little and didn't know whether to be so jealous my eyeballs almost became darts or just plain sad.
What I had just heard felt like Chinese to me. TAKE IT BACK?! Only 20-ish songs and it's not because you're too poor to splurge? For the love!

Anyway, so I finally got one and obviously, I LOVE mine. It's the 8GB Nano. She's blue. And, while I love her, I also still haven't been able to give up my cd's either. I have several in my car that I rotate in the 6-disc changer, need be. You see, my iPod plays through an adapter plugged into my lighter and it tunes and plays through radio. So, the quality of sound isn't the best. It sometimes sounds like you're playing an old mixed tape with lots of static in the background. Remember that sound?

Now, on to the new part of Vaught Thoughts where I ask in Frank Black style, "Where is your mind?" I'd love to know your answer to this question: If you could switch iPod's with anyone you know, whose would it be and why? When you answer, share with us your iPod make and model and how 'bout even your favorite song or favorite song as of late. This could be fun ... just sayin'!
