Flicker slut coming soon

I have ordered myself a digital camera. Nothing fancy. But a pretty good one, as far as I would know anyway. I can't wait to start snapping away and addicting myself to Flicker. I promise I am going to make you sick of my flick.

I have been wanting one for over a year now. I want to be able to post & email pic's like the rest of the world and I have always had an interest in photography. I asked for one for my 40th birthday this August, but I am planning a road trip during my two weeks holidays that start in 13 sleeps, Yah baby!, and I want a good camera for this trip.

Kaitlin & very likely my mom-in-law and I are heading south through Drumheller to Calgary and then back up to the north through the Rockies. There will be quite a few firsts for Kaitlin, like the Tyrell Museum and the Calgary Zoo, and a few for me too, like the Columbia Ice Fields and Jasper. I am hoping we have time to stop at the Miette Hot Springs too. My point anyway, is that I can't wait for August for this camera.

So, I have decided not to wait, and on Tuesday I get my birthday gift early. Dean doesn't know yet, so unless he reads this, which is very unlikely, he will only find out if you tell him. Of course I will show him what he bought me when it arrives. Kinda a reverse birthday gift where the surprise is on the giver not the getter.

I am very excited about this trip, and even more about the camera and all the flicker possibilities. I am a little concerned about my mood on this trip though. I will be either pre-menstrual, which means anything could happen, or I will be menstrual, which means migraine city.

Oh well. I refuse to let hormones in on my fun this time around. I am not the monarch for nothing. I will rule!
