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.

Why have I not checked this show out before?...
So I happened to find disk 1.1 of Queer as Folk (American version) at the library and it is rare to see disk 1.1 of anything so I checked it out. Go »I'm posting a lot
Yeah I suppose I should mention for anyone wondering (besides Scott, who I already talked to) I'm 90% sure I'm too crazy to do this GooCon thing appropriately. But that 10% chance of a successful trip is driving me nuts. I'm really curious to meet some other site users and I know it would be fun if I wasn't so crazy. Go »Stuff you may not realize about me :)
I don't know if people realize this, but I do talk, and I do have a sense of humor of a sort... it's just that it's only with Darrell and Darrin that these things come out! It seems my frame of reference for the world is quite a bit different than most people's. Go »Gross jelly beans
So, we all know I am a little juvenile for my age. We went and purchased some Beanboozled jelly beans a while back - the box comes with a mix of good flavors and disgusting flavors but you can't tell the difference until you eat them because the color is the same. I was apprehensive but most of the flavors I tried were really not that bad. Go »Adventures with Free Desserts
Four recent adventures with free desserts: 1. We had not much to do on Saturday morning so, against our better judgement, we decided to go to the furniture store, who had sent us a coupon offering free breakfast and a free gift to "preferred customers". Breakfast turned out to be doughnuts. Go »
