from what i understand, shoutcast will only stream whatever is currently playing. what i want to be able to do is select a song from a playlist like i do here and have it stream over to my laptop at work.

You can set up a web server on your PC with your mp3 directory accessable from the internet and then set up your work playlist using the URLs to the mp3s.

Also, there are winamp plugins that will allow you to control winamp over the internet, so you can control what is playing on the shoutcast stream.
