Techimoto Mama: Ipods “On the Road”

By DesignGoddess on May 17, 2008 in Travel Blog

Prior to this trip, Max told me I would never fill up the 4 GB of space on the iPod with my music. He had no idea how eclectic and massive my collection was. So when I reached 881 songs the iPod loading system (I’m not sure that’s what it’s called) asked if it could delete some songs and randomly place the rest in a playing order determined by Apple or Steve Jobs or some computer magic.

Being stressed to leave on a month long trip I reluctantly said Ok…so here is the question…who or what determines the playing order? Can I get a job like that? Here .is a sampling of the first day…Vivaldi’s Concerto for Flute and Orchestra to Rap Game D 12 from Eminem’s 8 Mile to Arabesque No. 1 in E by Debussy to Jim Morrison singing “Break On Through”, more classical, Eric Clapton “Unplugged” and to complete the circle, Etta James “Your Rock”, I’m your rock, but I’m rolling away. So to the right brained female perspective the Etta James song was fitting for my new feelings on motherhood and care giving… yeah, I’m your rock but I’m rolling away…
