My Workout Songs

Cutter's Log - Stardate 2102.41.80

I stumbled upon a surprise when dumping a bag of change into my cash register drawer last week. It was a mini memory card. I didn't know what this was for until I found a slit on my phone that fit it.

It amazes me how small memory cards can get. This one can't be any smaller than a thumbtack. It was dumb luck that it fit into my phone.

Apparently these memory cards can hold music. Already on this tiny memory card were 30-second song samples from today's hip-hop songs. Nothing I could really listen to, unless I was trying to act fake.

I went to Wal-Mart to try to find an adapter for this card, and there is one for $8. Hopefully it can all compute and I can erase all of these songs.

Then I can put new songs on it.

I've mentioned on here before about needing some songs to work out to.

Most workout songs are either strong on motivation or present an "anger" theme that makes you go nuts when working out. I've tried these kinds of songs ("Eye of the Tiger," "Burning Heart," etc.) and they haven't worked. So I will be switching gears and making a very unique playlist.

When you look at this list, you'll find that it just doesn't make sense. The theme isn't right.

That's the whole point.
