My New Toy

If I've talked to you anytime the past couple months, I've probably mentioned the fact that I'm looking around at professional SLR cameras. Well, yesterday my family and I went out to dinner (an amazing treat, by the way - someone gave us gift certificates and we were ecstatic!) in Niles which is a city that has about every store imaginable. :) We weren't planning on going shopping, but Dad asked if I was ready to buy a camera. Even though it was spur-of-the-moment, I'd already done my research and so I was pretty confidant (and excited). "Let's do this," I thought. :) We went to Best Buy and low and behold, there was the camera of my dreams: the new Nikon D90, hot off the manufacturer's line! However, this particular camera was quite a bit more money than I had seen in my research and I didn't really want to part with that much, so I down graded just slightly and got their previous model. What a beaut! I was literally screaming and hyperventilating in the car; I've waited soooo long for this day to come! Hooray!
They should have my baby in the store tomorrow, so Dad's going to be a dear and pick it up for me while I'm working at the library and taking my drivers' ed classes in the evening. When I come home, it'll be waiting for me on my bed. (I don't think it knows what it's getting into...) :)
Well, I hope you all are well and looking forward to spring as much as I am! Have a great evening! -AG
