plugged the diddy machine into a macbook, even though that isnt strictly recommended by anyone at all, ever. owner of macbook had 'hey ya' and 'muleskinner blues' and 'stand and deliver' on his i- tunes, and i needed said songs on the diddy machine so i could one day write about them on this blog. whaddyagonnado? forgive them for they know not what they do, etc. anyway so the upshot is, the diddy machine is DEAD. half of the songs on it disappeared into the ether, my pc refuses to acknowledge it, i reset it and now it has no music on it and i cant put any more music on it because the pc is all like 'yeah, you went with one of those mac sluts even though everyone said you werent compatible, and the slut stole your music and now you want me to get with you and deal with your sloppy macbook seconds? OH NO NO NO, BRO. THATS NOT HAPPENING. speak to the hand, because the face is not listening, etc'. i am distraught.
so anyway, im going to carry on as if i am turning on the diddy machine and hearing the first song and writing about it, even though i am patently not, because the diddy machine is DEAD DEAD DEAD. but lets pretend that i havent told you that. lets pretend that the pathetic conceit on which this blog is based has not collapsed like a deck of fucking cards just because i do not understand the true import of the phrase 'not compatible'. lets pretend that. please.

(full disclosure: DJ OMG! Awesome doesnt actually have an IPod. she has a Creative Zen Stone. its black. its ever so diddy. you should see it.)
point of blog: not much point. i just thought it was a very long time since i wrote anything about music. mainly because i have this ridiculous 'i have lost my edge' thing going on because i dont listen to music radio any more or watch music television and last year i didnt hear 'umbrella' by rihanna until it had been out for like, nine weeks or something. was that last year? or the year before? *do you see what im saying here?*
but i still loves the music. i cant actually leave the house without my diddy zen stone. i get a bit twitchy without it. sometimes i get a bit twitchy when im listening to it and i start doing a little techno dance when im waiting for the the traffic lights to change. (i always think that other people must find themselves doing this, but i never see them. it reminds me of a conversation i was having with someone a couple of weeks ago, where we were talking about how we sometimes flinch and say 'NO!' out loud if we're thinking about an embarrassing past memory, in order to like, change the tape? i was very excited to find someone else who does this. he was saying 'is that mental, and proof that we are mental, or does everyone do that?' and i said 'im sure everyone does it. lets ask other people if they do it' and then we kind of looked at each other and said '...okay, lets not'.)
ANYWAY; heres the plan. every day i write about the first song that i hear when i switch on my MP3. about the song, or the person singing it, or a thing it reminds me of, or whatever. 200 words. every day. without fail. okay, there will probably be some failing. but ill give it a bash.
