The traditional gift to give to your betrothed on your four year wedding anniversary is fruit or flowers. The more modern gift is linen, silk or nylon, and the "alternate modern" is appliances. Adoring and Wonderful Husband proved his love to me through the purchase of a present that could fall in all three categories: an iPod nano. (An electronic device made by Apple that just happened to be accessorized by a nylon armband for running.) I dig it, if only because when I use it I feel like a few years have been knocked off the ol' driver's license.
But only just a few years. Maybe only months. Because as soon as I went to load the thing, I realized how woefully out of date my music is (how could it not be for a person who uses the word woefully?) The last time I downloaded music, Napster was still free. In other words, AGES AGO. And so trolling in the iTunes music store I went, and holy moly, do I need some help updating my tuneage collection.
So I am appealing to the cool music people out there. I need some song suggestions. I'm looking for something upbeat for running, as well as something a bit more on the mellow side for when I'm staring at people getting on and off the bus. But really, I am open to anything and everything, because I need all the help I can get. (I especially would like to hear from Dave D., Uncle Rob and Matt.)
Thanks for your assistance in this matter.
