Ipods are like a good companion

I bought the ipod nano with 16GB on Friday and seriously. Can you love a machine? Something that can't reciprocate your love? It's essentially the only thing I'll ever need. My last one broke, and it was tragic. I had that thing for four years of my life. Fourth generation ipod. It didn't even have color or a cool interface yet. It was so clunky. I LOVED it. It started sketching out two years ago, but I just kept resetting it, and it worked just fine...until this summer when it wouldn't work on my ipod dock. Like a marriage ending.
