Usually, if someone seeks to surprise me and the tell me they wish to surprise me, it pisses me off. That's because my imagination is a whirling dervish of speculation, and most people most of the time are unable to trump what my imagination comes up with. Thus, the letdown.

mechanchaos managed to trump my imagination.

Tuesday, after work, he handed me a bag. I was loathe to look in it. I feared the disappointment if my imagination had indeed won out. When I finally peeked, I had to hunt for where my jaw had skittered across the floor.

He gave me an 80GB iPod.

I have a feeling that it will be an excellent companion for my convalescence. Now I need to learn how to use iTunes...

Hee! It's been so long since I kept music close with me. I feel it is like getting reacquainted with an old friend. :)

[blackfelicula.livejournal.com]

I agree. He complete took me by surprise with it.

Glad it all worked out. Any iTunes questions, feel free to ping me.

So he mentioned to me after I opened it. :) So far, it seems that I'm doing fine with iTunes. I just have too big a collection of music on my computer to weed through and make playlists from.

Welcome to the club! Enjoy your new toy!

[blackfelicula.livejournal.com]

Thanks! It is quite a shiny, sleek, and beautiful new toy. :) ***hugs***

Thank you for the picture of Connor. He's beautiful! How is he doing with growing?

[kareila]

I'm glad you enjoyed the picture. He is growing, steadily if not quickly.

Glad to hear it. Steadily is a goodness. ***hugs, with extra to pass around***

*grins* You seem to be making good progress in your iTunes 101 class. :)

***grins back and nods*** Using it when I'm on the computer is helping. It encourages me to work on the playlists. I want to have a few good ones put together before next Wednesday.

Thanks for giving me some pointers! ***hugs***

You're very welcome, and I'm happy to keep coaching you along if you find that you have other questions with use. :)

Did you and Beth have a good rest-of-the-afternoon after I headed off for work?

[blackfelicula.livejournal.com]

We did indeed. :) Thanks for suggesting the girls-day.

[dawnstar.livejournal.com]

Well it wasn't just me - I'm pretty sure you and I had the conversation together. I just suggested the specific time. :)

[blackfelicula.livejournal.com]

True. :) In any case, it was a good idea.

OMG. I love my husband, but he has never given me a 80G iPod. :O
Enjoy it, it's a wonderful thing to have your entire music collection with you at all times. :)

[blackfelicula.livejournal.com]

Indeed it is. :) I will certainly enjoy it.
