MP3 Players....UGH!

All I've done for the past three days (well, not all, but you get the idea) is attempt to connect three MP3 players!!!!!

First, Bethany's iPod is a disaster...after spending over 50 minutes on the phone with Apple technical support, the problem still isn't fixed. So then, I take it to Best Buy to see if they can help. They send me home with instructions (because I didn't want to leave my computer and the iPod there for a cost of $39+ for them to work on it!). Well, their instructions didn't yield any better results; so, tomorrow I have to try the technical support line again. UGH!

Second, Jim got a SanDisk (supposed to be plug and play!). I must have lost all my computer skills and intelligence, because I had to take it to Best Buy also. Worked fine there; got home and couldn't seem to get it to load songs. So, today I spent another hour on it, and finally got songs on it, only to find out that the sound wasn't working! Ooops...Jim forgot to push the center button! UGH!

(Buy the way, Lilly's CHEAP MP3 player works fine...the one we got a Walgreens!)

Third, with everyone else in the house plugged in, I felt left out. So, I got a Zen Nano (when I was at Best Buy trying to get answers on the iPod and SanDisk). Well...finally, my lamebrain skills kicked in and I got it to work the first time! Made everyone else very mad. Anyway, you can guess the one I would recommend!!! No UGH here!

Now, I'm giving up the music industry and going to put together a microwave stand (with Bethany's help...she's the mechanical one around here).

Catch ya all later!
