Do you remember how long I have wanted a new camera? I got one! I was soooo happy about it. The website, “cnet,” even rated it as being excellent! Not many cameras rate as excellent; so, I was STOKED about my discovery at our local Target store!
Sigh.
The camera has abilities far superior to my own! I guess most technology has abilities far superior to my own! But, at the least, I am able to execute whatever functions needed in order to get the end result that I want. This camera though, it overwhelms me…and it is just a “point and shoot!”
Don’t get me wrong! It takes really nice pictures by my standards, but it bothers me that it has more capabilities than I am aware of! So, that makes me feel as though I am not getting the best picture that this camera can take. I am not getting the most bang for my buck! Ha!
Why does that bug me?
Change…that’s why… I don’t like change…which perplexes the crap out of me because I am an Air Force Brat! I am the epitome of change! With my last camera, I knew how to work everything and with this camera, not so much. So, it sits on the island in my kitchen, taunting me, mocking me, thinking that it is better than me…and it’s right, so very, very right! Sheesh! How do I do this stuff to myself?!?! That is a rhetorical question, you need not answer, thank you very much!
Do you remember the new bath mats that we bought? The ones that screamed, “Oooh, I’m soft, go ahead, step on me, walk all over me.” Do you remember? Yea, you do? Oh good! Well, guess what? We returned them! When we stepped on them with wet feet, instead of soaking up the cold, the mats turned thick and cold and it felt like we were stepping onto a soaking wet towel that had just been pulled out of a bucket of water.
I’ve decided that I love dark teal! I am wearing a dark teal sweater today and I feel so Sex-and- the-City FABULOUS! I am sure that I don’t LOOK Sex-and-the-City FABULOUS, but I feel Sex-and-the-City FABULOUS! (For those of you non Sex and The City peeps, this basically means that I am feeling very stylish…en vogue! So, even though I weigh a million pounds more than the Sex and the City girls, I still feel FABULOUS! Can you tell that I really like the word FABULOUS.
I also like the word, fruition. It came to fruition. Fruition…it’s a good word.
Ahhh, I bet you missed me, huh? I bet that right now, your day is now complete and you feel 100% blessed that you were able to spend the last few minutes reading about cameras, bathmats and Sex-and-the-city FABULOUS!
Now, go, take on the day!
Missy, I love you, but you CRACK ME UP! This blog was like Paula on a very non-focused day...you started blogging about a FABULOUS camera, then the word fruition???, wet bath mats, and finally educated the world on Sex and the City vocab all because you are wearing a FABULOUS teal sweater! Nice!
