The Day I got my Zune

So I was gonna talk about how I'm wearing my hair differently (sounds gay but it really isn't) but then something better happened. I got an artpiece in a box, the new 80 gig zune with a special engraving on the back with an awesome design drawing on it, you can imagine the excitement of getting a non iPod mp3 player (because I hate the iPod) in a minimalistic white box and by minimalistic I mean only a logo on one corner and a nice glossy writing on the side saying originals (the line of zune with art on the back), I opened the box with a nice pink interior (ok I'm sounding more gay, I swear I'm not and it was a really nice looking interior). I looked in expecting to see my device and I find several extras, a coloured poster of the artwork in the back of my device (which is awesome and I put up immediatly as well as the other posters i was procrastinating for weeks to put, optimus prime and jack skellington oh yeah), so now my room is nicely decorated. anyway with the disney channel booming next to me on TV I continued openening the device and checking the manual (just for the sake of excitement, my adrenaline rushes up to the extent that I started reading the warnings but then stopped after a couple of seconds) anyway finding the speakers I said it out loud in a slow deep voice "in-ear headphones" even though they're earphones, but they are in-ear though. anyway so my software was installed like a week ago so I try to connect it, and my computer senses it and says connecting the zune, then says it failed. DAMMIT how can it fail, not now, not when I'm excited, but then again this always happens when I'm overjoyed about something, every time I get a device I'm highly psyched about it malfunctions someway just to spite me, anyway there's porlly someway to make it work that will make my pull my hair out before discovering it (and it looks soooooo good now, ahem AGAIN not gay). Anyhoo I'l get to trying to make it work and wish me luck because music inspires me to do better work and this device is artistic in itself (ofcourse these are BS reasons I tell myself to justify useless stuff I get, but i broke my mp3 and I needed a new one and hey the art was for free so hell yeah). but then it's not working, hopefully I can fix in it, anyway the disney channel is playing hanna montana now, maybe that will inspire me to fix the mp3 (the posters look cool though)
