While in the front yard admiring all the Spring flowers Mimi said:"It has Bizz-azz!"__________
Way back in 2006 I saved up for Greg to get an iPod nano. That thing has not left his side for a moment (much like Yoda's bunny, only slightly more useful). Music, podcasts, a clock aaaaand that's it. No phone, camera or internet access. While commuting to Boston for years Greg got into lots of podcasts, and while studying (for years) Greg listened to a bunch of music. It has been a part of his day for almost 6 years. And although if he were married to a different woman who would be OK with him buying new tech products the moment they were released (meaning he would love to be an early adopter) he really hasn't complained in all those years about his iPod's limitations. Not a ton of space for all his music and podcasts.
A few months ago he talked about using his birthday money to buy a new iPod with more space for all his stuff. I talked him out of it and he bought a miter saw instead--YES! But in the news lately there are stories of iPods setting on fire, so they are recalling the iPods like Greg's, so he sent it back to Apple yesterday. I was more emotional then Greg, he treated it like taking off a band-aid, very quickly. The good news is he gets a bigger iPod AND the miter saw! Win Win!
I made Greg pose for a photo with his trusted friend. While snapping the photo, Parker jumped in with a laser. (The iPod is already wrapped up in the packing.)
You and Greg deserve all good things.
