Size matters

And with some things...the smaller the better. I have had a several year love affair with my iPod...classic they now call it – it’s the big one that holds photos – which I never quite understood – it’s like the modern wallet photo album for parents I guess. In my case, it’s all music. I hate that they call it iPod Classic - makes it sound archaic and dinosauric. Today I had the extreme pleasure of purchasing its tiny itty bity, adorable, darling sister....iPod Nano. It’s soooo cute! And holds 1000 songs or like 2 movies I think. I bought it because when I would go running the classic isn’t heavy, but the armband aggravates me. I was expecting the nano to be small – but it’s sooooo small.

I bought the Nike armband and came home, found some new songs on iTunes (I’m still looking for recommendations if anyone knows any peppy/motivating running songs), loaded my play list and then tried to put the armband on. It’s seriously idiotic. There is nothing to hold onto while you tighten it. I pulled it up online to maybe see if I was the idiot, but the general consensus was that it got 2 stars only because the review program doesn’t allow you to give less than that – which does put some things into perspective. So back to the apple store for an armband that got good reviews...and it’s pink!

So I went outside and it’s freaking hot. According to weather.com, it’s not. But according to my parking lot it is. It feels like it was cooler when I played tennis this morning. So I waited for the sun to go down. I ordered a cool California ocean breeze via text message, but apparently my friend lives in the valley where it is 100 degrees. Of course my response had several “likes” and “totally-s” in it.

After its first nano night out I’ve decided it’s tiny and it’s perfect....but what 1000 songs will it get??
