I’m working to summon the energy to go get the new software for the new digital camera which MUST be installed before plugging the camera in (is this true?). If I do you will get pictures. Meanwhile, I am going to feed my bullet point addiction.
- why yes, the digital camera did break a mere 24 hrs before Noah’s 3rd birthday party. We got a cheap one, but it takes better pictures (with less fancy stuff) than our old one. Technological process, ahoy.
- I picked my car up TODAY. I left the Volvo at the Hyundai dealer’s today. I live in fear that they are going to call me up and freak out (despite my honesty on the trade-in form). I drove my indigo blue Elantra home today and it was great.
- This is the first new car I have driven. Carl’s Civic was new when we bought it, but it took me over a year to try the clutch. My Volvo was used and in hindsight, I think I should have just gotten a new car at that time. I think I was suffering from the “oh no I couldn’t possibly…” syndrome.
- Did I mention it’s all mine? Normally Carl and I make all major purchases jointly, so that when one of us drops dead it will be easier on the other. But Carl felt strongly at the dealership that it should be in my name only and I qualified and all that. So it’s mine. Of course we will share as usual.
- I lent my voice recorder to a friend/writer who is writing travel pieces for me. I had not at that point really used it in about 2 years. But of course as soon as I did that, I had an interview over the phone (no big deal) and now I have one in person at the film festival (a bigger deal). And of course, this is God’s way of telling me I must get a reporter-style flip Moleskin.
- Before Sunday.
- I am still not well and hope to get in with my doctor tomorrow.
