Forget an ipod! I want a walkman!

Does anybody remember the days when you used to use cassette tapes?? Boy forget an ipod I needed me a walkman to listen to the music I recorded off the radio. There was a time when you would go to the store and there would be a section for CDs and a section for cassette tapes. I would always go for the tapes because a Discman was way too expensive. I remember when we got our first CD boombox we were oh so happy so we went in the newspaper found that little Columbia House CD paper sent off for some CDs and never paid for them!! (Don't act like ya'll didn't use a fake name to buy stuff!) Anyways back to the walkman I got my very own one in '98 I remember that because the I was torn between getting Monica--The Boy is Mine and Some Whitney Houston Album. The first CD I ever bought was Destiny's Child the Writings on the Wall.

{Oh and this just came to mind! I remember listening to my sister's DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince's Summertime on her walkman and the tape got messed up and she blamed me for that! It wasn't my fault!}

Amen. And there was nothing like making that mixtape too. Those were the days. I still don't own an ipod yet.
