I was driving my kids to camp Friday morning and stressing a little about what I would write for the blog. That’s the main reason I don’t blog myself — too much pressure. And to blog for Steph, well, I have to amuse. Entertain. Make Bulgarians want to stand up and cheer. So I was [...]

I finally got all our photos in one location. Well, sort of. I’m still adding things to my Flickr page, but that’s the stuff I consider artistic (laugh away, my pretties) rather than just regular ol’ family pictures. :grin:

You should disown your cousin, the C643 [...]

I’m pretty sure it’s wrong to love a camera this much. But holy Hannah — I took the photo below indoors, overcast day, no lights on in our bedroom, and [...]

Since I can’t count on winning Ree’s camera, and I don’t want to spend a hibbity-jillion dollars on one of my own, I’ve been looking at the “entry-level” SLRs. I think I really, really want the Nikon D40.
There are 81 shopping days until my birthday, folks. :D
