I've been contemplating buying a new camera. Ok. I've actually been obsessing about getting a new camera. (I even started a "new camera fund" which had $5.00, until this morning, when I decided that I'll start a new fund next week because...I drove by a Starbucks)
I love my camera. It takes great pictures and it's very easy to use. However, I want a camera that gives me more control and allows me to manipulate a shot.
While researching cameras, I decided to read up a little bit on the one I own. And, um, wow, that "owner's manual" would have been a great thing to read when I bought it over 2 years ago because, DID YOU KNOW IT CAN SHOOT IN BLACK AND WHITE? Neither did I! But, in that "owner's manual" that's been collecting dust under my bed, it said that ,and it even showed me how to do it.
(and for the record, THAT one is titled "When Evil Babies Attack..in black and white")
I've posted black and whites before, but they were edited to be that way. I can actually "shoot" in black and white, and this makes me so excited that my mouth is actually watering.
(The smile on my face is 25% "I love my daughter" and 75% "OMG! I'M SHOOTING IN BLACK AND WHITE. YEEHAAAW!")
But, not only can I shoot in black and white. I can also shoot in sepia and "black board" and "White board" and OMG! I CAN DO TWO PICTURES IN ONE!
Tony's been asking me to read that damn manual for the past 2 years and I've not done it because "I KNOW HOW TO USE IT I DON'T NEED TO READ IT! I AM "GOD'S WARRIOR"! (Sorry, I had to work that into this post somehow because...It was only the greatest moment in the history of television!)
I think I'll still start saving for a new camera (d-slr), but now that I know these totally awesome settings exist on my camera, I'm not feeling so obsess-ish about it, because, you know, TWO PICTURES IN ONE!

Ha! That woman is completely psycho! She was just pissed that Jeannie got along with her family so well, while she couldn't even get a goodbye or hug from the kids without begging when she left.
She also didn't seem to comprehend that someone can believe in God and not be a Christian. Wow . . .
Someone should tell Miss Self-Righteous that gluttony is a sin;)
