Kid stuff

Elder daughter told me today that I need more CDs. This occurred to her because the CD changer is only about a quarter full (it holds 400). I think it also occurred to her that if I got more CDs, there'd be more CDs for her to borrow.

But right now I'm not in the market--sometimes I spend a lot of time listening to music I already have, but lately I've preferred radio (well, if you count XM as radio, which I guess you have to--we only have it because we have DirecTV but I can certainly see the appeal), music where I don't know exactly what's coming up next.

Currently my musical tastes are broader than hers. I like most of what she likes (I like a lot of music), but she considers a lot of what I like to be too old. She by definition doesn't care for anything that's older than she is, which I find kind of amusing. She tends toward popular music, I guess--favorites include Rihanna and Kanye West--which isn't surprising since she is thirteen and that's what many of her friends like. (She still likes Green Day but considers them a bit old as well, which I suppose they are to a thirteen-year-old.)

You know, they always say how fascinating it is to see how the little kids grow and change. I think it's more interesting to see how older kids do so.
