My guilt. Your FL post.

I love Best Buy's Geek Squad. Mom and I took my iPod in last night to confirm the damage and I just love how everyone at that little orange carrel looks like they belong there: all dressed in black and white (some with ties and tie pins), with similar scrunched up or rounded faces, as eager to help you with your laptop or iPod as, say, a Cylon is eager to bypass intergalactic treaties and blow up the whole damn space station. Anyway. I digress. 'Word in the Geek Squad geek pod is that my iPod has had it. They're going to ship it to Dallas and I'll be getting a replacement (hopefully the 80G upgrade) in a week, two weeks. Todd was sweet enough to loan me his iPod so I don't have to work out without music. Todd is amazing like that.

I'm actually not that bummed about it. I mean, yeah, it sucks to be without it for a week or so, but at least it wasn't my laptop that crashed, or my external hard drive, or my phone. I've been listening to a lot of CDs in the car and, yesterday, I think I turned my radio on for the first time since I got my car. At the same time, I feel like a disgusting American capitalist consumer for even being sort of put out about not having my iPod. One of my co-workers gives money to a family in Rawanda and their big "Christmas present" this year was a goat. I mean, geez. I'm spoiled. I'm terrible. I should give to Amnesty International. Or the...International Goats and iPods Foundation.

These will all change by this time next week
