Music Addict

I don't know what has happened to me. I am sucking up music like it is going out of style. It's the e-music thing, really. I was waiting and waiting for the turn over of the month to finish downloading Belle & Sebastian's The Life Pursuit. Then I had to download Rodrigo y Gabriela, who are not Brazilian as I had previously stated but Mexican. LOVE them! They are coming to 9:30 Club June 30th, I think. I really want to see them, but we shall see. My sister said I could also visit that weekend.

I still have 22 gigs on my iPod. I should download more podcasts to listen to, but I really need to get some device that will allow me to play my iPod on my car stereo. I am, for some odd reason, more likely to listen to talking people in the car. If it is preaching, I might say "amen" or "true that" (in my white suburban way) too much in public and that would be embarassing. Or, what is truly more likely, I might start a running commentary out loud in response to what I am hearing. In church, I can write my comments down, which are usually in paranthesis and consist of (Oh, really, must check on dates when synagogues were regulary attended) or (Do they really think that homosexuals are breaking up marriages or perhaps could divorce from hetero affairs be more prevalent) or other smart aleck remarks made in my turned-up-nose voice. But, if I am listening on the train, then I might just say something aloud. Of course, there are enough crazy people on the train that I might just fit right in....
