Well, I'm trying to get used to this Nikon...

I absolutely loved my Olympus, and that's the problem. If I never had my Evolt, I'd probably love this camera. And it makes me feel bad because I should be more grateful. I am grateful in that if I didn't have this Nikon I'd be without a camera. Period.

I did that for a few months, after my Evolt was stolen and before I was blessed with this Nikon. It was hell...

So I am grateful, just maybe not grateful enough, and I feel like a jerk for it. I feel like my photo quality sucks. Like all my measly artistic ability was in that Evolt.

My brother (bless his cotton-pickin' heart) just sent me a USB hub for my computer. That way I don't have to unplug my internet modem to plug in my camera to take the pictures off. That in and of itself makes me really happy.

And then, last time I talked to him he told me about how he talks to his grown kids on Skype, and how they all have webcams and have a blast with it.

So, along with the USB hub he sent me a new webcam! So I'll have to get all of it hooked up and send him a thanks via Skype!

Between the frustration of having a "friend" stolen and having to learn a new gadget some frustration is expected. Give it some time and it too will become a friend.

Thanks for that, Drew. My heart knows that, but my head just doesn't have the patience, or something. It's nice to have you tell me. Maybe I'll even start believing it! :happycry:

Smiles. I understand. When my baby is off at the shop (which seems to happen once a year) I am a nervous wreck. So I may talk big but I do understand! ;)

Skype isn't set up yet, but will be. I'll let you guys know as soon as I get it all set. :)

And don't worry! I've got all my bed bugs trained. They don't bite anymore! :rofl:

I just carry my camera around with me every where I go. Usually. Because if I don't, I'll see something I want to take a picture of and be disappointed. Like the sign at the video store that said:
THERE WILL BE BLOOD ON SALE NOW

:giggle:

:aww: When I don't have my camera, I will say aloud, "Oh! That would make a good picture!" "Hmm... I wish I had my camera! That would make a great picture!" and "Damn! Why don't I have my camera? THAT would make the most AWESOME picture!"

My friends, individually, all have tried to get me to quit saying those kinds of things, but now they just accept that it's part of who I am.

I'm sure you understand! :)
