I have been listening to my IPod lately and it cracks me up because I have ~2400 songs on my IPod right, but I can choose the shuffle option while I’m at work and it’s as if the songs have been chosen from a foreign person that has no idea of my taste in music.  What is up with that? 

I hit that shuffle button and some song comes on from The Doors. Really?  I have never in my life listened to their music, I don’t know how it got on my IPod and I don’t want to listen to it today.  I move forward………I get Cher……….not sure how the HE** she got on there except maybe from a friend of mine who is obsessed with her and I might have copied it over………moving forward………..Indigo Girls?  Yeah whatever; I can’t even name one song they sing……..moving forward……………..Garth Brooks……….aaahh finally something I can tap my feet to and actually enjoy.  One song down 2399 to go…ha ha.

I think it’s a mood thing for me or something because I will have a group come up and I think to myself, “not today” and I have to move on.  I guess it’s the flow of the day.  Today was more upbeat for me so I had to move through a lot of Sarah McLaughlin and sappy love stuff.   I was more into the Aerosmith, Rascal Flatts, Prince and a few other fast moving beats. 

I do find that I work and concentrate much better when I have music in my head.  It seems just keep my mood higher and more focused in a creative way.  It’s just the shuffle; the shuffle causes some issues in my flow.  Yes, that is why we have playlist I know, but then I even complain about my playlist; they too get old.  It’s hard to stay fresh isn’t it?  As I forge ahead I need to just go with the shuffle don’t I?  Open my horizons to new music and tap my feet to a different drum!  If only…………..
