He is very nice, it's more the aquarian thing that makes us not perfectly gel.

He certainly sends the sunshine up my skirt, flaws and all. I have a DVD of their Glastonbury concert and I can barely watch it because I end up drooling a puddle the size of an Olympic pool.

I've never dated any musicians. Would love to, though. I used to play the cello, but that's so incredibly dorky and doesn't exactly make for good conversation, especially with a musician.

That's funny, because a few months ago when i went to visit said aquarius friend where he was staying up in wine country, i went with a friend from my hometown who brought her cello. (I met her here, she just happened to be from my hometown) anyway, it was really cool. They had recording equipment and instruments and such, and all played together. The cello is beautiful. Try being a flute/alto sax player around musicians!

But still, it's fun to hang out if you get to sing with them and stuff, and also "make suggestions" on what they are doing. Of course, they rarely listen, mediocre though they may be, but still.

Oh, and mainly chick musicians send "sunshine up my skirt" for some reason. Cause they're gorgeous and charismatic? It's not really a sexual feeling, though, just an immense feeling of viewing beauty and accomplishment. Guess cause i'm a girl, I tend to relate more.

I don't disagree, but you should see me playing one. A man playing the cello while wearing leather pants, ultra-mod Alain Mikli glasses, some random weird ass t-shirt, and a scarf. It's a sight to see.

Eccentric to say the least.

Leather and a cello

Is that a bass or treble instrument?

I went out with my mother this afternoon and she took me by surprise and told me I was "eccentric." We had just gotten out of Best Buy because she was buying a new computer and I didn't know what to make of it. Then she embarrassed me. "You're the only person I know who buys something and then sticks the price tag on your cheek while opening it." I am so pathetic.

well, that is a little odd

I, too, was at Best Buy today. My MP3 player FINALLY died - so I bought an IPod - it is a little intimidating - but WAY

ooo, I wanted an ipod, but decided to allocate those funds to NOTS. but i found an alternate version (the mini, mini, mini IPOD) that is only 94 dollars that i'll probably get. It holds 120 songs, which is good enough for my purposes of mobile listening.

(which mainly consist of using it everywhere i walk to do errands or go to work, or work out. I can usually only listen to about 5 -6 songs wherever i'm going)
Um, diss, I don't think that's weird, about the price tag, but why do you wear a scarf when you play Cello?

I'm too cheap to buy one.

Can you put any old thing in them or just legally downloaded songs? Like, for example, could I rip one of my CDs and put it in there?

I just got an SACD of Bowie's Scary Monsters album while I was at Best Buy and it sounds amazing.

I know - it was HUGELY pricey. But, I had had the last one for like three years or more. Plus, I have been so good with my diet and exercise - it was a reward!!!! I also had been preparing to buy it for awhile.

I wear scarves 24/7, I love them. I wear them inside, outside, even to bed sometimes. I must have millions of them.

You can put all MPS on there that I have seen. I currently am putting my CD's on there. AND - with this attachement - it will boradcast to any FM channel in my car

OH! I like the way they look, ok, but in general i don't like constrictive clothing. I keep my house (apartment, actually) heated to a high degree in winter, whilst i wear tank tops around the house.

I only like stuff constricting my neck when it is cold. I have a beautiful scarf my dad got me, though, that I enjoy wearing. It is velvet, and has a beautiful random blend of purple, dark green, rust, black, turquoisy. like this. But mainly I usually want to be unencombered and warm.

I'm sure I'll get one eventually. The idea of having all my Lindsey, Blondie, and Bowie albums together and at the tip of my fingers is very appealing.

And I like that it's so small and not bulky like ridiculous CD players.
