What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I have a Shuffle!

Aimee, I'm so sorry that you are feeling sad about your troop change. I hope, if it is the catalyst for getting some support, that it works out well for you.

But, more than anything, I just want to say how awed I am by how much you care for these girls. I read your post with a tear in my eyes, wishing someone like you had been in my life when I was that age. It is a gift that you care so much, and a testament to the kind of person you are. Definitely not a person who deserves to feel rejected.

I have an ipod and an iphone that I use as a camera and an ipod.

For some weird reason, the iphone will not play my audiobooks in order. Even with the shuffle feature turned off. It's pretty disconcerting listening to Terry Pratchett novels out of order because, frankly, you never really can tell!

Because books.

I've never had an i-anything. Or a Mac. I feel like a rebel.

I have an ancient video iPod and a Shuffle, and I mainly use both of them for exercising.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Jesse, sometimes it better that I do not have cable. The ice cream is made, now I am making some salsas, 2 or 3, I think. I am also calling this other place about a haircut.

Jesse, I turned it on late -- they bought the 1950s one, didn't they?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

They were all 1950s ones! But the one they ended up with did not have the original wallpaper in the bathroom.

HGTV is a menace. To my productivity.

HGTV is my default channel. I'm addicted to House Hunters International now.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Remember back in days of old, when most people only had a single iPod? How did we survive back then?

It's like I can't even understand what you typed there.

The only iPods that are not currently used in the household collection are the ancient 1st gen iPod and the almost as ancient 1st gen Shuffle. And Pete has started making noises about maybe finally putting music on the 1st gen iPod, so he can use it with speakers in his studio.

(During my train ride down to PDX, I texted Cass with "I am reading an ebook on an iPad, listening to a Nano, and texting you from an iPhone. I am a cliche, aren't I?"

She wrote back "And you work for Microsoft. Yes you are." )
