Ela elaaaa ela elaalalaaaaaa

Cyprus goes out of their way to bring Turkey and Greece together this year. But hang on... this is not Eurovision Review time. I'm sorry, listening to the ESC CD has its effects on me.

For a few weeks now I've been driving around with only my radio for company in my car. Before that I had a tape player/radio. Ah yes, don't mock my very modern technology. Practically every CD I have has been put on cassette to play in my car during the numerous commercial breaks, news (I don't need to hear it three times during one car ride, thank you very much) and/or crap songs. The tapes are completely worn out and practically soundless in some places, but I guess that just adds to its charm. Unfortunately a while back my Eurovision 2004-cassette jammed in the player. And it's still bloody stuck there, no amount of pushing and pulling is helping. So last Saturday I bought a ... CD player/radio for my car. Can you imagine, real 1990s technology! (it's even a Sony) My car's going to the garage on Monday (and I get to take the Parents' PimpMobile to work, complete with three-CD-player-surround-sound-system) for a check-up and for the "installation" of said ultramodern soundsystem.
Already the girlfriend and I are arguing over which CDs I can take in the car with me ("no, you can't take Eurovision 2005! Take Pet Shop Boys!"). Who else gets the feeling I'll have to copy all my CDs just to stop the bitching?
