Oh Yah! I got a new toy!

Yippee! Yippee! I got a brand new toy! It's is like the fourth child I never had... It's my new baby. A camera! I have been lusting after a decent camera for YEARS. And I finally took my little nest egg of savings from Christmas's and birthdays and bought it. Well my brother actually bought it for me and brought it to me today. He is the handsome guy in the picture. The baby of the family. I handed him a roll of twenties and fifties with a rubber band around the middle. It was an impressive wad of cash and we both felt a little dangerous. I have always wanted to give someone money rolled up like that.....well it would have been a better wish to receive a wad of cash like that. I even broke down and bought a second lens that will zoom me right up to your face from down the street. It felt heavy and substantial in my hands and I went outside and took random shots of the neighborhood. So what if the neighbors stared and looked uncomfortable. I looked like a professional......even though I had no idea of what I was doing. I waited by the door for Mr. T to get home from work and snapped a picture of him as he opened the door. FLASH!! It was a surprise picture attack. I won't post that picture because it didn't look so good. Note to self: Surprise picture attacks don't really flatter the person you are photographing. I think that I will sleep with it beside me tonight.... Mr. T won't mind. He's a good sport.
