My wife wants an iPod, and actually, she wants me to buy a new one so she can have my current one. I’m waiting for a newer generation that will probably have more memory, and keep telling her that we’ll just get her a new one, but she wants mine. It is a long-standing discussion.
We went to the Apple Store over the weekend, so I could look at the newer macbooks, and we passed by the iPod display.
I picked one of the new video models up to show her (tempt her) and I looked through the folders on it to see what demo pictures they had.
It was perfect. I couldn’t believe it. There was a whole folder of cute baby pictures. We’ve been in high baby mode due to the recent birth of our nephew and as I scrolled through the pictures did all the voices of the babies as they tempted her to purchase the iPod.
“Oh, look how cute I am, don’t you want to buy me?” I said in my high-pitched pretend baby voice.
It was hilarious. I enjoyed it too much.
Then I went to see if there were any demo videos as she put one of the display’s earbuds in her ear. And wonderful! There was a Coldplay video and as I started to play it, continuing in the baby voice I said, “oh, look, it’s Coldplay. You loooove Coldplay…”
It was ridiculous and fun, and we were both thoroughly entertained. We do have a good time together…
