I got a nice kiss from a greyhound (there with the breed rescue society) and got these nice goggies on pixels. What the heck is the Ginormous Shar Pei?
Then we went to Brewvies for lunch and Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. The first movie I've seen at a theater in more years than I care to count that I actually LOVED. It's smart, and expects me to be bright and pick up on references and hints and to follow along with dramatic cuts and sly asides. The tone was pitch perfect, a precise movie about people living rather slapdash lives, full of heart without being sentimental. Or when it does deliver a "lesson" it's with overthetop self-consciousness, "yeah, we know, and we know you know, and you know we know you know." Fun, but not fluffy. Kieran Culkin one of many young actors that prove it's the poor quality of direction and writing that is killing film, not lack of decent actors. Never being a gamer or a comic book fan, I know I missed some of the more obscure references, but just being awake and aware for the last thirty years, I got enough.
All in all, a Good Day.

a good day full of sunny photos...is your camera intelligent like mine or does it allow you to make mistakes and masterpieces? Someone should certainly take credit for that great one of Moby on the previous post...
Rosie,
It does BOTH. I don't remember if the first one was on auto/auto, but I don't think so. It has a goodly number of bells and whistles, plenty of chances to really screw up the pictures.
Lovely woofers. Have fun with the new camera. I find it takes time to fully enjoy a new one, I missed the old one for quite a while and was fairly sure the new one was a disappointment, but now I don't feel that way. It's not merely technical I'm sure, but about getting to know each other. I'm quite sentimental and anthropomorphic about cameras.
Lucy,
Actually, I'm finding it's utter love. Despite being a bit overwhelmed with the possibilities, I can only say lovely things about the new one. It really is the old camera updated. I don't have to color correct in iPhoto for every single image, or crop anywhere near as much, or see too much background, much easier to download.
