...sigh...
My trusty old iPod shuffle is about to die. It's the first generation one, the one that didn't need an adapter or an dock to plug it into the USB port on the computer. When THO first got it for me two years ago, it would hold about 120 songs. Now, I'm doing good to get about 90 on it.
Then, I was preparing to load a new list of music on it, and... when I popped off the cap to expose the USB connector, I found myself staring at a tiny end of data bus. I thought, "Hullo, what's this?" And then I shrugged and thought, "Oh, easily fixed."
Yeah. Right.
No, not easily fixed. I won't go into details, but let us just say that occasionally, I do run into things I can't fix, and this is one of them. It still plays, but... when the charge runs out on it, that's it. It's gone.
*sigh*
Oh well, my birthday is coming up. Here's hoping the Husbandly One will surprise me with a new one!
