Redshift

Ya gotta love creative products for hating me. I got a Creative Zen Vision: M mp3 player for christmas, and the damned thing died the other day. It no longer holds a charge, even when I charge it to full. I flip it on and the battery icon goes from “Full Charge!!!!” to “Oh dea, I’ve just had a stroke. *dies*”.. Imagine that the zen has phil’s voice and accent and it’s kinda funny. Moving on, My iPod’s starting to suffer from battery problems as well, but that’s after 2 years of constant abuse. It still holds about 8 hours of battery life which is great for an iPod that’s had the shit kicked out of it over 2 years, but it’s time to get a backup in case my iPod craps out on my like the zen just did. So, today while I was at my favorite store in Flint (My Mom’s Friend’s pawnshop), I was looking through what he had mp3 player-wise. He had a Brand-New, Boxed, Black & Blue Zune in the display case. I asked him how much he’d sell it to me for, (I was trying to get myself a discount, since he and my mom are like best friends) and he said he’d give it to me for $180. Quick math: That’s $70 bucks less then what it’s sold for at every other store. That made my Freakin’ day. So I had him stick it in lay-away so I can make payments on it as I continue to try to budget my phone bill, DSL, and other random stuff I have to pay for. I’ll have it in about 2 months if I can make enough payments, so I’m happy. *Does the Mid-Air Masturbation Dance*
