Electronically sound.

The other day my ipod died. I brought it into the store and they told me it was officially dead. Not even the magic touch of the nice cute and very knowledgeable boy that helped me could fix it. I smiled and thanked him for his time, but walked away bummed. I had spent time creating my awesome playlist and didn't get to really enjoy it.

Then my cable connection got lost. I wanted to watch some Animal Planet or Science Channel before I drifted into a deep slumber, and lo and behold, my cable connection did not come through. I called Direct TV hoping they could walk me step by step in order to get it up and running again, but to no avail. They offered to send a techy out to rescue me but I thought a moot point seeing how I will be moving down the street in a week.

Oh, and did I mention we have no Internet as well? I am typing away from my dear friend Nesia's computer while she is working.

So, I decided to pick up the current read I am into which is "The Alchemist." Its one of those books that I think everyone has read, except me. This particular one is a hard cover with pictures included, sort of deluxe edition.

All in all, I think when the Universe tells you to slow down and de-elctronecize (yes I made up that word) you should listen. So I am, although the ipod thing gets to me and probably wont be long before I go and make that purchase. But for now, I'll enjoy my book, which is perfectly the sort of read I need. I relate to the story of the Shepard boy and his quest for his Personal Legend.

Apparently, I am a mirrored reflection of his story and my own quest for my Personal Legend.
Sans Electronics for now.
