W00t!

I did it!

After two weeks and approximately 14 hours of futzing, I have a wireless network up and running at M's place.

I'm sitting out on the porch, enjoying the sunshine and the view, and posting from my new laptop.

Whee!

God, I'm such a geek!

Geek fun

My iPod shuffle just arrived!

I'm charging it up and loading up some music on it, so that I can use it later.

Somedays, I'm just a little too geeky. *g* I can't believe I'm all excited about an MP3 player.

I actually did it.

I actually just switched banks just so that I could get an iPod shuffle.

How sad is that?

I think I'll like it. I won't get the thing for 6-8 weeks (they mail it to you), but still, I think I'll like it. *g*

Now I just need to finish ripping all my music to my hard drive and build some "gym", "travel" and "walking" playlists so that I can load the Shuffle up easily once I get it. Fun!

To switch or not?

Okay, now sad is it that I'm seriously considering changing banks, just so that I can get a free iPod shuffle? I don't even particularly want the Shuffle - not being able to pick your playlist is not exactly a selling point, for me - but I figure a free shuffle will keep me from spending $400-$500 on a 20G iPod, sometime in the next few weeks. I keep looking at them, and I'm getting closer and closer to justifying buying one...

I want something for the gym, and something easier to carry than my cd player for walking (since I'm doing a lot more walking) and, well, I guess I just want a new toy. *g*

So, I'm possibly switching to TD Canada Trust in the next few weeks. *g* I just have to go figure out their service charges and stuff like that...
