Ok, first off, if you don't know already, I DO NOT have an iPud. I have an MP3 player. I refuse to use a piece of hardware that uses proprietary hardware and software (except the Xbox 360, and that is mostly just for the kids... mostly). I have a Creative Labs Zen Xtra 40GB MP3 player... Yes, 40 Giga-fucking-bytes.
Sure there are now iPuds out there with 80 GB, but when I got this sucker the only thing Apple was offering was 20GB, and guess what... mine was WAY cheaper. To actually get all of my MP3s onto a device I would need about 50GB, but there are some things that I don't listen to that much. But regardless I ripped all of my CDs into MP3s.
So after much ranting, here goes the meme...
Okay, on to to the meme...
Here's the deal: 1. Open your library on your iPod. 2. Put it on Shuffle. 3. Press Play. 4. For every question, type the song that's playing. 5. When you go to a new question press the Next button. Nat interprets this as something about the story of your life, so I'll go with that.
Opening Credits: "Maybe Angels", Sheryl Crow. This means I am either an angel or an alien. You choose.
Waking Up: "Saint Joe on the School Bus", Marcy Playground. Ok, that's just creepy.
Falling In Love: "I Wouldn't Dream of It", Split Enz. That is so fitting it made me laugh my ass off. "I'm not a prince in a fairytale, looking for a foot that fits"
Fight Song: "Goin' Through Your Purse", Material Issue. That would definitely deserve a fight.
Breakup Song: "Everything's Ruined", Fountains of Wayne. I couldn't have put it better myself.
Making Up Song: "We Are The Normal", Goo Goo Dolls. Is making up is normal? "We live and we die, with no reason why"
Life's Okay Song: "Build God, Then We'll Talk", Panic! At The Disco. "there are no raindrops on roses or girls in white dresses", Such a happy song... NOT
Mental Breakdown: "Private Idaho", The B-52's. I think some friends of mine in high school thought I was having a mental breakdown when I was listening to these guys. Little did they know that I was just fucking cool.
Driving: "Get To Me", Train. Perfect..." Well an airplane’s faster than a Cadillac
And a whole lot smoother than a camel’s back
But I don’t care how you get to me
Just get to me
Parasail or first class mail
Get on the back of a Nightingale
Just get to me I don’t care just get to me
Prokeds, mopeds take a limousine instead
They ain’t cheap but they’re easy to find
Get on the highway point yourself my way
Take a roller coaster that comes in sideways
Just get to me"
Flashbacks: "Girls...", Marshall Crenshaw. Hard to believe, but I taught myself to dance while cleaning my first apartment while in college listening to this song, and every other song on this album. I guess this would also work for the next one, but I'll do this right.
Happy Dance: "Rock You Up", The Romantics. Maybe I should have switched the last answer and this one. One of my favorite 80s rock bands. I went to many Romantics concerts. We did a happy dance whenever we heard they were coming to Colorado.
Regret: "Shiny Magazine", Jet. The song is a little fitting, but the word makes me think of a voice mail that was left for me today. My head is not on straight.
Final Battle: "Not Where It's At", Del Amitri.I don't have my finger on the pulse of my generation
I just got my hand on my heart, I know no better location
...
Yeah, she don't want me 'cos I'm not where it's at
Death Scene: "I Walk Alone", Oleander. Holy shit, I hope not.
Final Credits: "Through Being Cool", Devo. I'm done
Just like Terry said, consider yourself tagged, if you want to be!

Good post!
I'm with you. I have a Zen and I love it!
Cheap and no one tries to steal it when I'm out jogging.
P.S. II is my gaming choice.
that was cool, but I do not have the time or brainpower today to do all that.
DS - I've never been a big console fan. I loved the original Nintendo, but after that I had a brief run with the Dreamcast, but then I really got into the PC games.
Jodes - I know you have plenty of brain power. It didn't take that much time.
Can you come over and clean my house so I can see you dance?
At least Devo made it on there somewhere.
Erika - Cleaning house takes a lot out of me. How will you make it up to me?
BWH - Devo will always be on my playlists.
I finally figured out why I couldn't post photos anymore, so I modified the post the way I originally intended.
you went back and added the pics very cool!!
Hello. I have an iPod. It is dumb, but what can we do about that? Nothing, just continue to inhale and exhale and hope for the best.
Rivulets. Opaque. Zephyr.
