It used to be that I’d do it once a year, and I always dreaded it.  I had five of those CD binders because I’d thrown away all of my jewel boxes.  I traveled a lot, and this was in the days before most of my music is digital.   I’m talking about, of course, the sorting of the CDs.  Mine were sprawling out of their cases and scattered all over one of the shelves in my living room and generally contributing to a look of disaray.

I loaded up iTunes with two episodes of This American life and set to work.  One good thing, I told myself, is that I’ve since consolidated CDs to get rid of three out of the five binders, so the sorting should be less.  I got all of them at least placed in the correct alphabetical piles, but actually alphabetizing them is for another day.

Meantime, I found a handful of mix CDs that I haven’t listened to in years.  I’ll load ‘em up in the car stereo and give them a spin over the next few days, but I thought you might appreciate some of the titles (not all mine).

Do *you* have any good mix CD titles?  Let me know in the comments.
