Long story, so I'll try to be brief...... Our house was struck by lightning a year and a half ago. Along with several other appliances, my PC laptop was plugged in and it got fried. My iPod was set up to work with that laptop. I have since switched to a Mac and am told that the music can't be transferred to the Mac from the PC. Whether or not that is actually true, I don't know, I haven't pursued it very much. (I'm lazy like that.) So now I'm adding music to my iPhone since I always run with my phone anyway.

Still with me? Cool!
Ok, so I must have had a little buzz going when I was perusing the plethora of iTunes tuneage because my final selections are all over the place. Not sure what my newest collection says about me....... (The Hustle? Really?? Takes me right back to 6th grade and learning the dance moves in gym class.)
What can I say? We all have pockets of bad taste. I guess the most obvious thing my choices say about me is that I like some really dumb songs!
So. Marathon training - here's the week in review:

Sunday Rest day so I'll just be walking Jane today.
Have a great week, y'all!
This reminds me that I need to be doing more hill repeats (or any at all would help). My upcoming race is hilly!
ReplyDeleteCould you just put your songs from your PC on a thumb drive and then move them to your Mac? Might not all fit in one go, but it could be worth a shot.
I've got an external drive you could use to do the transfer if you'd like. Just did the same thing with the oldest daughter's music. Let me know
ReplyDeleteThanks for the suggestions! The laptop is dead but I was able to get all the files transferred to my external hard drive. It's actually the iPod that says it won't share. I'll probably have to take it to the apple store and see if they can work some magic. Stupid limiting technology....
