they're advertising on tv here a mp3 player, pre-loaded with an entire "library" of classical music, with a built in rechargeable battery that can be plugged into the wall socket - no need for a computer. I guess they're aiming at the "what do we buy computer-phobic Dad this year?" market.

I couldn't quite believe that I have to charge this thing up with a computer, but there ya go...

I had a bunch of mp3's saved to my computer already--random stuff that I had picked up along the way--and downloaded them all into the player, which of course, shuffled them into alphabetical order.

It's hilarious!

But really nice to know that I can have a bunch of music on here that I like, without having to switch CD's or being held hostage by the whims of a radio DJ...

you might be able to get a "USB device charger" so you can charge it from a wall socket, or even the car's power outlet (cigar lighter)

Paul said something about that last night, because this thing has issues with charging up on my computer while it has no problems with his at all, so rather than be plugged into his computer all the time, the little thing-y would be able to do it without tying up his port.

I think he's looking into that today.

I don't see that as codependant - he works retail. During the holiday season, that royally sucks balls.

I really do miss him when I'm off and he's working. I find myself...waiting.

It's like I've forgotten how to have fun on my own.

OT question - I usually soak raisins in rum for my carrot cake - if I started soaking them now, and stuck them in the fridge until Sunday, do you think they would get slimy?

Nope.

They'll be good and soft, but alcohol is a preservative, so they won't get nasty.

I don't think it's codependent. You're in love, and you want to spend time off together. Makes sense to me.

I feel badly seeing him off to work when I get to slog around in my jammies all day, knowing that he's putting up with the bullshit...

Besides, he's my favorite playmate, and I find myself feeling very much like I used to when my best friend hadn't arrived in the sandbox yet! ;-)

Oh, well--soon soon.
