New Camera
by Denise Sawicki on July 2, 2007
I didn't realize you could get a digital camera for $15 now... Once I became aware of this fact, I had to have one! Darrin got rid of his camera phone and this will serve the same purpose. I know a lot of people would likely scoff at these pictures but I guess I am pretty impressed, given the price. It takes videos too (without sound) but we haven't gotten any good ones yet.
First trial shot taken by Darrell as I'm driving away from buying the camera at KMart.
Our house. Yes I know everyone is always making fun of it for having a tiny yard, but I ask you, why would I want a big yard? Why would I want to do all that mowing? That is Darrin's new car in front.
Philip hanging out in the white-trash back yard I made for him (I put up the chicken wire around the bottom of the deck myself.) I guess eventually we may get arrested for having long grass in there. I'm wondering if eventually we can fill it up with gravel or put some wildflowers around the edge or something.
Yeah. Clearly I'm not mature enough for home-ownership.
Anyway, I'm happy with my new toy and pleased that it didn't cost much.

And on the heels of the TC discussion about digital being the death of film. If digital in general isn't, $15 digital is. :-) Enjoy it.

True that...
and that yard really must be tiny -- so much so that I can't even see it!

Yes the front yard is mostly filled up by the driveway. The back is bigger though... The part I fenced in is just under the deck so Phil can do his business without our supervision :P

Actually, Denise, I was teasing about the yard because the picture itself wasn't showing up -- but it does now. It's just a typical suburban plot.

So, It seems like our frequent thunderstorms have programmed me to become wide awake at bizarre times even when there isn't a storm. I am definitely going back to bed. First I wanted to comment on a strange trend in anime. Go »Narcissist
Oh lord, new worry, what if I'm a narcissist. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissistic_Personality_Disorder "NPD is considered to result from a person’s belief that he or she is flawed in a way that makes the person fundamentally unacceptable to others [8]. Go »TV crushes
I need to apologize for the rather fangirlish reference in my last goo. I was having a little crush on Marcus Cole when I made the goo... that is my justification. Go »Now I remember why I live in North Dakota
It got hot all of a sudden the last few days, or what passes for hot in ND in early April (50s). It's like a spring break video out there, people prancing around in bikinis yelling "woo"... OK not quite but there is a marked change in demeanor. Go »Adventures with food
So, Darrell is getting really into cooking lately so I got him a pasta machine and this weekend we used it for the first time.. OK I used it... and it was kinda fun! Go »
