Blah Therapy: iPod and Retail

We finally had a decent, warm day. Re-opened some pneumonia holes to let the heat escape and fresh air in. Branding, sorting etc. was still going on. I discovered yesterday that Honey needs more socializing than she has been getting. She was giving the neighbor's kids a wide berth. So I leashed her today and at least Camey was able to pet her though Honey was was fighting the process all the way. More to do. Where to do it?

I got the brainstorm that my iPod could provide music for Rich and Val's wedding so I broke it out and was checking and listening-very enjoyable. The music had me bouncing in my chair as I typed on the computer. Getting practice at dancing while sitting- I'll be the best one at The Home. I realized that were some gaps in the collection as far as a general or dance audience might perceive it so I went to Amazon. There are some dirt-cheap "used and new" collections but even at that they added right up. Later in the day I called cuz Susie to find out if there was a plan for wedding music- turned out there was! Oh, well. I'll slap them on the iPod anyway and use them at John Prince Park this winter. I love my iPod. It has an amazing collection of music as it is. It will be totally awesome with the new additions. DJ Time!

Salon, online magazine, has some good reflections on Father's Day. I loved Garrison Keillor's comment that it arouses all the passion of Arbor Day or National Pickle Week. That much? I don't think so.
