Last night as I was driving home from work I was not in a very good mood. My day was draining and nothing much good had happened. Every single song that came up on my iPod on the drive home sucked. I must have hit skip 100 times. It was very annoying.
Living your life with the constant accompaniment of all of your music is a cool thing. I almost exclusively listen to my iPod on shuffle and it’s a great way to listen to your collection. I miss the days of sitting in front of my stereo with some headphones, of course, and I really need to start listening to some records all the way through as they were intended. But, for your daily commute it doesn’t get much better than the randomness of an iPod on shuffle.
Well, my iPod must have sensed that it didn’t do a very good job on last night’s commute home. So, this morning I was treated to the best sequence of music my iPod has ever spit out. My ride to work was a joy (and yes my commute is so long that I could listen to all of these songs on the way in this morning).
Thanks iPod!
