AA for Mac Addiction?

I am completely obsessed. I got a powerbook
about a year ago and I cannot see how I lived
without it. I actually bought the powerbook
as an acessory to my iPod. Yes, it's true.
I always used to carry at least 20 CDs with me
wherever I went, you never know what you will
feel like listening to. So I got the iPod, well
I got the powerbook first but only so I could
have something to hold the music to put on the
iPod. Somehow it didn't seem like bad logic at
the time.

Well the obsession has grown recently. I can't
explain why but when the new iPod shuffle came
out I HAD TO HAVE ONE. It's completely silly since
I already have a 15G one but it looked like such
a cool gadget. There was a huge demand for them
so I have been on a waitlist with the Apple store
for the past month, well I was until last night!
My reserved iPod shuffle came in and I picked it
up last night. I have been using it all day.
It's awesome! I don't know why it seems so much
better than the big one but it does. It's probably
just because it's a new toy. That's good enough
for me though.

Unfortunately waiting for it to be released and then
waiting to get it has resulted in a general Mac mania.
I check Mac rumor sites at least 4-5 times a day, I
look at the Apple site just to see if they are up to
anything, I search out neat applications that are
probably going to result in me screwing up my
powerbook....I have a problem. I have been swept
up into the Mac community's frenzy over when and if
Apple will release a powerbook G5....why? I already
have one, I don't need another computer. I think
that there must be subliminal messages that are
programmed into the iPods and computers. That or I
am really just a giant dork that needs to get out
more. NO! I know! It's the damn weather!

Yeah, that's it....the weather.




I want to say thanks to Jill and Bryan for hosting
a great superbowl party!

My question is: What are you doing with your iPod? Will you sell it to me?
