Annoyed

A lot of the time I am my own worst enemy. The prospect of walking to work without tunes is not a happy one, yet even though I knew I’d be walking in today, it only occurred to me to fill and charge my ipod about half an hour before I need to set off. When I eventually found it it was devoid of battery life and full of old stuff I’m sick of hearing at the mo. So, quick round in the USB slot to get some charge and put some new…oh balls, I set it to automatically sync with the Pablo’s Ipod playlist, which it is now doing, overwriting the tunes that are already on there with…the tunes that are already on there. Quickly into the settings, cancel the auto sync, drag files on there manually from Recently Added. Shit! they won’t add, have I somehow broken my ipod? frantic clicking. oh, no, I just didn’t realise that as well as disabling the auto sync, I need to enable the manually update option.

So it’s finally now adding the tunes I want (after having to cancel the first lot, because even on USB 2.0 it takes about an hour to have 300 songs). And hopefully just in time for me to be able to set off to work and not have to run part of the way. I think I might put a new nano on my Christmas list so it can load quicker. And re-do my itunes settings.
