I keep an iPod-compatible clock radio in my bathroom. Oftentimes, I'll set my iPod to shuffle and hook it up so I'll have something to listen to while I'm in the shower. Now, I might not have the biggest music collection in the world, and I'm happy with what I got, don't get me wrong, but for some reason my iPod can never pick a song that I feel like listening to.
On the other hand, I rarely, if ever, listen to music from my computer. Under normal circumstances, my iTunes is nothing but a conduit for me to load stuff onto my iPod. But this past weekend, I was downstairs a lot more than usual and too lazy to grab my iPod from its dock in my bedroom. I found myself wanting to listen to some music, so I opened up iTunes and set it to shuffle. And I gotta say that I've been very impressed with the output of tracks it's given me. Quite a few favorites popped up. Even the selection of stuff I wasn't exactly familiar with was more pleasing. Before I knew it, I'd been listening to the shuffle for three or four hours.
So a little while ago, I was making myself some hash brown potatoes (that got ruined when I accidentally pulled the sprinkle-top off the container of garlic salt and poured way too much on) when this shuffle discrepancy occurred to me. I'd been so used to a crappy shuffle for so long. Is this what I'm gonna have to do to hear some good music at random? Kinda ponderous. I don't know if I can get behind that. Perhaps I shouldn't be so indecisive with my shower music.
Peace be with you.
I'm outta here.
