My New Toy

I finally broke down and joined the digital (camera) age. I figured I'd want a new camera for my trip to England in the fall. The last time I bought a camera was in 1987, right before my year abroad in Spain. And I still have it. And it works. I just never ever use it.

I'm excited about learning how to use my fancy new toy. It's a Sony DSC-H1. I bit fancier than I expected I would want, but I might as well learn a new hobby. It'll probably take me half a year to learn how to use it.

Amazon has been teasing me all week. Yesterday the case and extra batteries arrived. Then finally the camera and memory stick arrived today. I was pretty excited about it only to discover the batteries had to be charged up before I could stick them in camera. So I guess I'll take it home and play with it tonight. Maybe I'll have some pics to post later this week.
