Dick got a wild hair in his butt was inspired to take out all of his CDs the other day and rediscovered some of his old music collection. He was like an excited kid in a toy store:

“Oh! It’s Jamiroquai!!”

“Dayum, Soul to Soul!!”

“Milli Vanilli?!?!?!”

“Genesis, Pink Floyd, Michael Jackson, 2Pac, Ole Dirty Bastard, Everything But the Girl, Tony Rich Project…”

ETC, ETC, ETC.

OUR SONG

Whatever happened to Tony Rich? One hit wonder I guess.

Anyway, his hit song, Nobody Knows, was  popular at the time and we dubbed it “our song”.

Yes, cheesy, but, well..WHATEVER! Here it is in all its glory:

Nobody Knows

Quite a blast from the past.

Dick does have quite the collection.

He goes on to comment because now, he’s wanting to download them onto his computer.

“Who knew that CDs would become obsolete.”

Better get started. This is going to take a while.

In the midst of going thru the hundreds of CDs he has, he finds an interesting one.

It’s a Don Johnson mini-CD!!

Remember Don Johnson from Miami Vice? And does anyone remember that he tried to sing at one point too?!?!  This single is Take It Like It Is. Its not really impressive…no wonder he was never a Singing Star.

MINI-CDs

Because Dick grew up in Germany, they sold all singles on mini-CDs so as to not waste money and material for a full-size CD. Therefore,  in order to play the mini-CD on my CD player, I need one of these converters.

The converter is basically a plastic piece that the mini-CD just pops into. I wanted to upload the song for you but the file is too large (8.9M) and WordPress won’t allow me to post any songs over 5M. Anyway, it sounds like a slow song that couples would dance to in the 50s at a sock hop. If I can somehow chop up the song and post it, I will.

THIS JANE NOT HAPPY ABOUT THE NEW DECOR!!

Although I’m glad to have our music back, I’m not happy about how it looks now in our office. Here’s how it looked before.

Decorated nice and SIMPLY with some Asian, Zen pieces. Great for a peaceful atmosphere to work in.

Now, my shelves are CRAMMED FULL of HUNDREDS of CDs. WTF!!!

I basically flipped my shiz because it’s so opposite of ZEN and PEACE. See how it affected my atmosphere already???

To top it off, he then sticks some of my old decor in front of the CDs!!!

I’m pretty sure this is against all FENG SHUI rules!!

Not to mention, he stacks the CDs in such  way that it’s NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE to get any CD from the middle or bottom out!

And, see where the Frank Sinatra Collection is? Dick knows I’m not happy about how this all looks so he tries to cover the VCR tapes that were found in the boxes with that! We don’t even own a VCR player any more!!

I’m trying my mightiest not to put my foot to his ass.

Breathe. Just breathe.

-Jane, LOVER of MUSIC not CD CHAOS!!
