Expresso is my copilot
Have made it safely north of Toledo before I stopped, and thanks to the occasional Starbucks expresso doubleshot, had no idea how wiped I was until I stopped. Felt bright and lively behind the wheel!
The iPod playlist is working beautifully... well, except for the part where Maskerade skipped like a little girl on a playground, and now I have to wonder all weekend if the drive is breaking, iTunes was fussy, or the actual disks are damaged... and what I'll do if it's the latter, as I got the thing from Amazon.co.uk, so returning it is a bit impossible. Occasionally one of the remaining firing brain cells wonders about the other 10 things I uploaded from disk for the driving playlist, but the rest of the brain cells smack it around, reminding it that there are merely six days worth of alternative audiobooks already loaded. And that I have the dozen CDs brought for the Big Finish show and tell panel if the iPod or the adapter doesn't make it all the way.

Hope the discs aren't damaged - 'cos that'd be annoying !

There Are Ways of dealing with the issue - I've got other drives, although iTunes won't recognize them, and I've got mp3 conversion software, so I should still be able to import clean copies with a couple of extra steps.
But that's not going to help my carefully crafted playlist right now, damnit! And the most annoying thing is I'd been carefully saving three months of Big Finish's releases as a treat for the long drive!
*sigh* Well, at least the brand new Martha Mix should play fine, even if it now won't serve as an introduction to Wetworld.
