Happy Birthday To MEEE!!

Happy Birthday To MEEE!!
In honor of Green Friday and my Birthday I will be discussing something very near and dear to my heart, GIFTS!! Yipeee!! I Love gifts, getting them mostly, but I do like to give them as well.
For my Birthday this year I received something that has brought me to the brink of technology. I am now in my mid-30's (Blue thinks I turned half-a-million-years-old today, must be nice to be 5!!) and I feel the need to stay hip and current with the trends. My hubz got me an I-Pod. I think its the same as an MP3 player, but I am not really sure. I know it plays music and maybe I can watch videos as it has a screen. I know nothing about it, but I think it has earphones. It seems everyone has one, but for some reason I just recently discovered this little thing. So in my efforts to stay current (how long have they been around??) I just had to have one. I have finally leaped out of the 90's. I guess I can retire my Doc Martens now.
How does this tie into Green Friday you ask?? Well, first off my husband bought it and refused a plastic bag!! He simply carried it out of the store (with his receipt of course) and told the girl he did not need a bag, its as if he knows!! Also instead of having bunches of cd's around with all that excess packaging and such. I'll simply be able to have everything on my I-Pod thingy. That means less waste and less cd's to get scratched or sticky from little hands.
Now hopefully the feds won't be coming to my house for getting music off the computer, cause I'm not really sure how all that works. I know you can pay, and there are places where you don't. I am not sure how all that works, I guess I'll have to ask one of the kids at work, those college kids are all over these things. If you have any info, please help a sister out!!

Hi. I don't usually go around promoting my blog on other people's sites but you definitely need it. http://connectwithyourteens.blogspot.com/
It is actually how to connect with your teens through pop culture and technology but it can help anyone who needs to know how to stay current with those things.
By the way, sign up with itunes and you can buy songs there for $.99 each.
Happy, happy birthday to you! :) May you have many more birthdays to come. Here's wishing you your heart's desire...
Take care and happy weekend!

Happy birthday! I came here actually to drop my EC but just couldn't resist leaving a msg when I saw it was your bday. I can't help you with iPod thingy though coz I don't have one. When my hubby asked me what I wanted for Christmas, a GPS or an iPod, I chose GPS, and its my new BFF, LOL. Goodluck to you and your iPod, happy bday again.

I have left a comment on your July 4th post...durrr I meant to leave it on this post.
Hugs xx
belated happy bday irish mom!
Oh shoot. I'm late. Happy birthday anyway!!
Congrats on the iPod. I'm sure you'll love it. If your husband bought it at an Apple store, you might check to see if they have mini-classes on how to use them. I went to one for my iPhone earlier this year, and it was fun!
I'm not here to 'preach' you on how an ipod works and what it does, asI do not have an experience with that thing. Oh, being a million years old! Anyway, me and my friends, Dessert, Dinner & Fatboy Slim just want to wish you a very happy birthday, Irish Mom! ;o)
