What?? Friends Listen to "Endless Love" in the Dark...

Most of the time, I love my i-pod. In fact, on many occasions, I have been known to call it the greatest invention of all time. This morning though, was not one of those times. For some reason, my i-pod decided to suprise me this morning with a new playlist that I like to call, "music to slit your wrists to". As some of you may or may not know, I've been single for a while now, and while I embraced that single lifestyle for a very good period of time (and believe you me, I embraced it long and hard), I have grown tired of it. So, I've made it my goal this summer to be Rook's summer o' love. Unfortunately though, Rook's summer o' love has been filled with bad kissers, obsessive dudes, Dave Matthews Band fans (no offense if you are one), cock-blocks and my favorite---exes falling in love and getting married. Anyway, this has left me feeling a little down. So-this morning, as I am walking to work, I put on my i-pod and get ready to face another week at work-and this is the playlist that greets me:

For Once in My Life-Stevie Wonder
So Tired of Being Alone-Al Green
At Last-Etta James
Barstool-String Cheese Incident
Better Together-Jack Johnson
Always the Same, Always the Best-Robinella and the CC String Band
Waste-Phish
Danny's Song-Loggins and Messina
Drifting-Trey Anastasio
Fell in Love With a Boy-Joss Stone
ENDLESS LOVE-Diana Ross and Lionel Ritchie (NO JOKE-have no idea how this song ended up on my i-pod, but I nearly died when Lionel begins belting out-"my love, there's only you in my life, the only thing that's right...")
Harvest Moon-Neil Young
And now, the clincher----Fuck and Run-Liz Phair

Who knew? Not only is my i-pod an amazing little device that belts out songs---but that it also has a wicked sense of humor.
