Tomorrow will be the close of week 3 at my new job and so far, all is going very well. I'm enjoying what I'm doing, learning a great deal, and feel that I'm also becoming a very valuable contributor to my team. I don't think I could really ask for more.
Have you ever let someone borrow your iPod or simply look through your music selections? This might not seem like a big deal, but it is to me. To me, it's as personal as letting someone read my diary (if I had a diary) or seeing me in my underwear. I loaned mine to someone yesterday and immediately I knew I had made a mistake. 10 years ago, I would have thought nothing of loaning someone my iPod (if iPods existed 10 years ago), but that was before I met my husband. He won't hesitate to tell you that based on my iPod, I'm a total dork. I've always considered myself to have good taste in music and very open minded considering I like a little bit of everything. According to my spouse, the fact that I have any Celine Dion songs in my library are totally uncool. Throw in a few cheesy 80's songs, a grand assortment from the 90's, and I'm a certifiable dork.
Knowing that I have terrible taste in music, I'm thankful that iPods didn't exist when I was on the dating scene. Based on my iPod, I'm a little frightened to think of who I might have ended up marrying, had compatibility been judged based on taste in music. Can you imagine a man who likes Brian McKnight, Celine Dion, Nexxt (Next?), Boyz II Men, Montell Jordan, and Aerosmith? Oh, I can't forget Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre. Thank you, Steve Jobs, for inventing the iPod after I got married.
