I saved myself $100 yesterday!<\/p>\n
I bought a fairly nice Sony CD Walkman last summer (the previous version of this model<\/a>). I only used it probably 30 times since I bought it, mostly working out. Back in the day, I would bring a CD player wherever I would do homework, but now I just bring my laptop<\/a>. Well, sometime last semester, something in my CD player broke. The lid would never stay shut. If the lid is open, the player automatically turns off.<\/p>\n Yesterday, I probably killed two hours just looking at new CD players. I finally decided on this one<\/a> since it is a Sony, thin, and can play MP3s. Yes, it’s in girly blue, but I like girly blue! (You should see some of the shirts I have…) Before ordering it, I thought I might as well try to fix my old player. How could it hurt? I was going to buy a new one anyway! I ripped it open, moved the lever a bit and it worked! Well, by “worked” I mean the lid would stay shut. I got all excited and decided to go work out, just to try it out. After changing, getting a Nalgene bottle ready and downing some Creatine (you think I am joking?), I tossed some batteries into the old player. Nothing. Press play. Nothing. Sigh.<\/p>\n I ripped it open *again*. I couldn’t see anything wrong, though I did have to disconnect a cable to reset the lever. I reseated said cable. Nothing. Just then, I noticed a little piece of plastic sitting in my lap. How it stayed there for the fifteen minutes between when I first opened the player to when I noticed it is beyond me. I figured where it went (another lever that pushed down a little button when the lid is closed) and wham. I was off to the CCRB<\/a> listening to Trail of Dead<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I saved myself $100 yesterday!
