I know this isn't a new observation, but sometimes it's freaky how mp3 players seem to have a personality of their own. Mine totally is picking up on my mood today and playing ridiculously cheerful, bouncy songs. Walking to work this morning it started me off with some Monkees, then went into Blue (you know, the da ba dee ba da song), hit me with some peppy Lyle Lovett, blasted I Want to Be Sedated, flipped into some All Girl Summer Fun Band, and then some Sleater-Kinney. Must have picked up the fact that I'm wearing a flirty Bridget Jones-esque skirt. (You know, the "skirt is demonstrably neither sick nor abscent [sic]" kind. )

Of course, maybe this is to make up for the little bastard tormenting me on Valentine's Day with nothing but sad ballads and sappy love songs.
