After 2 months of having no speakers on my computer at work and having to endure endless days of bad radio stations overplaying Kelly Clarkson, Simple Plan, James Blunt & Black Eyed Peas (I swear our mainstream radio stations have the same 20 songs on repeat all day long), and thinking that I should really buy some little speakers but never finding any that were really cheap, I went home last night and rifled through a drawer (looking for large envelopes, of all things), and found...
LITTLE SPEAKERS !!!
Which I have hooked up to my work computer first thing this morning and THEY ARE WORKING and I can LISTEN TO GOOD MUSIC AT WORK at last!!!
I am seriously happy about this. Really. No more having to put everything I download onto a disc to take home to listen to, no more endless James Blunt wailing at the end other end of the store. I am listening to some songs I downloaded from
thosegypsies and I am so very happy.Now I'm off to learn about Podcasts :) Because, you know, now I can listen to them as I download them. No more taking home a million discs that I never have time to listen to anymore!
*dances*
my desk at work
Currently it is actually sort of neat, with my embodiment journal and Inspiration notebook, PC magazines that we subscribe to (yay, geekiness!), my new speakers (*squees*), water bottle, tea, handcream, our multi-card reader and some pens. The colour laser printer (my new best friend!) is to my right there (just next to the magazines but it's not in the photo). I love my little work station :)
PS: Please feel free to recommend bands/artists, podcasts, music communities & websites like pandora.com for me to check out :)
Also, anyone on Last.fm? - I'm crushedstars on there :)
Oh yes, & which music player do people prefer - eg, Winamp, Windows Media Player, iTunes? I generally use a mix of iTunes & WMP, but I'm open to suggestions.
