It first started out small, as these things normally do. I met a petite young shuffle a few days before Christmas about two years ago. Our relationship went well, until a traumatizing experience with a laser projector left my beloved incapacitated and in need of a new motherboard.
I waited many days for her return, hoping that she would not have changed much. On her arrival, she looked exactly the same, yet the same could not be said for my feelings. I was longing the song of another bird, specifically an older model, the 20 gig Classic.
When the time came for us to depart, we had no negative feelings. My brother took her, and I took the Classic, and so far, things seemed to be fine.
Until I got curious...
Although it was difficult, I finally got her to open up, which is something that I could never accomplish with the shuffle, as I had attempted. Least I could say, I was fascinated by the inner workings, and wondered if I could go any deeper.
Sadly when I tried, I seem to have struck a nerve, and we were never the same.
That song that was once so familiar seemed distant, and although I longed for what once was, we both knew it could never be the same.
After spending so much time alone, I've decided that I can't take this solitude any longer. I needed to get out and see other people. Just to break the silence.
I've resolved to find a new one, one who I can dance and sing along with, without fear of rejection from others. Perhaps with a Zune.
I'm not sure how this new chapter will unfold. Perhaps it will go well, or maybe it will be another drastic failure.
One thing I know though;
Tomorrow I'm going to go out and buy myself a Girlfriend, and pick up an MP3 player too.
