portable mp3I went to a concert last week with my son and loved the music so much that when I came home I downloaded all the songs to my portable MP3 player.    When my son asked if I’d attend a concert with him because the girl he was taking backed out at the last minute, I admit being a little apprehensive.  After all, I know my son well enough to know that the music he listens to and the music that I listen to vary greatly on the spectrum.    I decided that I’d go anyway, because when he let me hear some of the songs on his portable MP3 player, it actually didn’t sound so bad.   I didn’t think it would become my favorite, but it was something I could listen to over the course of the evening.

Surprisingly, I loved the band and my son had even arranged with a friend for us to meet them.  They thought it was cook that I’d been listening to music on a portable MP3 player and that I enjoyed their style.   If the truth be told, I think they were surprised.    I had a great evening and my son and I decided to do it again sometime soon.  I found that I actually like having different music on my portable MP3 player.   It’s fun.
