changing opinion?

I've been trying out three new programs, hated two of them in the beginning, but one of those is gaining ground, though I can tell there's missing fullness to the sound.  It is a little like turning up the treble full blast, the bass is squelched some.  But I was trying to read and listen to music at the same time, and if I used program 3 the twitching made reading a little difficult.

So many new sound experiences yet to go, I went to Borders today and was totally overwhelmed with where to start in finding some music to buy.  Some good friends of mine gave me a Borders gift card and suggested buying music.  I've listened to samples at Walmart, but today at Borders I listened to a genre I've never heard in my life.  It was Appalachian style music, quite a wide variety. Some of it was vocal, some violin, another in fiddling style.  All of it was entrancing, however my roommate listened  to the music sample and told me she didn't like it.  Then I asked her if it was the music or the words that turned her off.  It turned out to the the words.  I'm not understanding the lyrics except in cases I've heard or sung the song before.  I really don't want offensive lyrics!  So I stuck to some safer choices, one Vivaldi violin concerto, and another CD of various Christian artist.

I just wanted to say hi since I've been following your blog for a bit. I work with the BEA at AB and sometimes have referred candidates to blog sites when they have questions about "everyday life" with implants. Would it be OK if I gave out your blog address? Thanks for all your excellent blogs! Edie
