This morning, on my way to an office I'm working at right now. An iPod Shuffle. Please excuse me while my silhouette dances.
Ah, who am I kidding - I don't need an iPod shuffle. But I do need to be able to hear later in life. Besides, I'm a PC, not a Mac. (Memo #1 to Justin Long: fuck off. Memo #2 to JL: OK, so you were alright in Live Free Or Die Hard. But please, enough with the Mac ads. Please.) I think I'm going to return it when I get home. Thanks, but no thanks, grey box.
* Update - OK, OK, OK - I kept the iPod Shuffle. I'll probably end up giving it to one of you, you who've been harassing me about returning something so fucking cool. But I may just keep it for myself and not use it.
** Update - The iPod Shuffle doesn't work! That's deeply unethical, leaving something in the grey box that doesn't work. Where do you get iPod Shuffles fixed? Can you even get iPod Shuffles fixed? It'll probably be cheaper to buy a new one - and as you know, I don't buy anything! FFS.

great to see you in the blogosphere!
Have you found anything from my list yet? Also be on the lookout for: a sushi set. I totally want a sushi set and figure its the type of thing that west enders would put in a grey box.
Nothing from your list yet, Beth. I've seen a sushi set before, though ... maybe it'll reappear.
Oi, achei teu blog pelo google tá bem interessante gostei desse post. Quando der dá uma passada pelo meu blog, é sobre camisetas personalizadas, mostra passo a passo como criar uma camiseta personalizada bem maneira. Até mais.
Good point, Rodrigo.
I can't believe someone would abandon an ipod shuffle. I treat mine the way I would a child.
I love Justin Long, despite the fact that he kicks my PC ass in those commercials. Or maybe because of it.
Why the anonymity, "Anonymous"? Surely you're a friend of mine if you're commenting on this blog. And yet actually the only thing more exciting than a friend of mine commenting on my blog is someone I don't know commenting on my blog. (Rodrigo doesn't count because I have no idea what he's saying.) Of course, that would also be anxiety inducing - how the hell does someone I don't know. But then welcome to my life.
Rodrigo's rough translation:
I found your blog on google. It's interesting. I liked this post. My blog is about personalized t-shirts, shows step by step as to create a personalized t-shirt.
It's portegeuse and that's the general idea, but it could be a bit off.
Rodrigo should print a T-shirt that says 'If you want to know about product placement, tap me on the shoulder'.
Cheeky bugger.
