iPod temptation Oct02 '03
All day, staring at the ceiling, making friends with shadows on my wall.
All night, hearing voices telling me that I should get some sleep because tomorrow might be good for something.
Hold on, feeling like I’m headed for a breakdown, and I don’t know why.
A while back, I wrote an entry about MiniDisc vs. MP3 player. With the help of Apple ingenuity, my opinion has gradually changed. I’m getting to the point now where I can feel myself buying an iPod, I just don’t know when. Ever get that feeling? You don’t have the money for something, or you feel you don’t really need it at the present time, but you can still feel yourself growing more and more attached to the prospect of actually owning it? Every day, I feel like I need it more and more. I try to silence these thoughts, but they haunt me at night.
I can feel it coming, from miles away, like waiting in a subway tunnel for the train to arrive, and finally seeing that flicker of light at the end of the dark tunnel. The light gets brighter and brighter.
I know I don’t need an iPod – nobody needs a portable music player – but I feel there are forces pulling me into the void, and strongly urging me to buy it.
I find myself using iTunes as my main music source, and since I am such a huge Mac fanatic, it would only be appropriate. I suppose there’s nothing wrong with using both the MP3 player and the MiniDisc player, is there? Of course not.
