Back to Being Me
I bought a new camera. I was suffering withdrawal.
It had been almost a month since I lost the last one. During that time I had to rely on other people for snuggly group photos and Cookie self-portraits. Or worse...not take ANY photos of myself (gasp)! I love being an event photographer. Unfortunately, it's an expensive habit, because losing cameras is my specialty. Any bets on how long I can hang on to this one?

The new one, firmly strapped to my wrist, will be doing some damage this evening. See you all tonight.

Canon Powershot SD450. It gets great reviews. There are 2 other models that are newer (with more MPs), but given how frequently I misplace my cameras, I wasn't going to allow myself anything better than what I bought. This one has 5 mega pixels and a 2.5 inch view screen. Figured that was plenty.

i'd like to take some credit for this new purchase, having previously made fun of your morbidly obese camera. i have the sd300.. very compact.

I hope it lasts!
Let me know how it works out for you, as I am in the market for a digital camera myself..so if you have any suggestions, send em my way.
PS thanks for the warning about blogging being addictive. I am already noticing this, and it is ONLY day 1! Scary! Have a great time tonight.

I'm sorry I didn't get to meet you tonight - I saw you across the room but was feelin' shy and didn't mingle with everybody. I hope you got some good pictures and promise to see you next time!

It's her blog why shouldn't she post pics of herself?
Besides, she's hot.
Send me the pics before you post Cookie! I love you!

Miss Cookie. Your readership is clamoring for the Phil-boobage shot. You must post it. It brought a tear *choke* to Phil's eye.
