Good day sunshine

I'm only at the computer long enough to eat my dinner (peanut butter and banana on whole wheat - yum!), and then I have an enormous amount of studying to do...

We finally got some sunshine today. It's been gray and cloudy for weeks, and the overall mood around town has felt subdued and a little gloomy. I celebrated the return of the sun by going for a run - with my nano! Luis bought me one for Christmas (He's so cute - he always wants me to open gifts the second he gets them home from the store) and gave it to me last Friday. White, 4GB, and now loaded with a little bit of everything. I love looking at the artists' names side-by-side; in my nano, Barry Manilow can peacefully coexist with Avenged Sevenfold, Motion City Soundtrack and The New York Philharmonic can cozy up together, and Hoobastank and James Taylor are friends. I love the nano, although the complaints of it scratching easily have me a little paranoid. (Luis has had one for a couple of months, and his is a little scuffed.) I'm like the crazy old lady with the clear vinyl slipcovers on all her furniture - my ipod is staying in the plastic wrapper until the tube I ordered for it arrives. (I trimmed openings for the earbud plug and the hold button.) Go ahead, laugh. I don't care. My nano understands.

Well, my sandwich is gone, so it's time to study. Ugh.
