(dream)

Fred and I were our current age, but alone at our ex-ex house from elementary school. We were so mad and fighting with each other. I was just so pissed at him! I don't even really know why, but just pissed and calling him all sorts of names, refusing to help him with our chores, and we were both undermining each other's work.

I was extremely glad to wake up from this dream.

I just created the first agenda for our investment club meeting next Thursday. I'm the new president, so I get to do those types of things now. Once I get into it, I think it will be easier than being treasurer.

Just gotta figure out how to keep track of all the details.

digital camera!

I got a digital camera today! Olympus D510. It has a 3x optical zoom, and fits in my pocket. Aww yeah.

Superb thanks to Dude for bringing a smartmedia card to Best Buy so we could actually use it and see if it had all the functionality I wanted. Then we cruised over to Micro Center and got a 128M SmartMedia card for $49.99. Nice.

The only thing I'm lacking is a computer with a USB so I can transfer pics to my computer (website) easily. I'm running Win NT at work, and it doesn't support USB. Maybe I can figure out how to get my linux machine to do it. Maybe (ugh) I'll "upgrade" my work computer to Win 2000.

I'm at KTRU, getting paid $35 to listen to the basketball game. I played about an hour worth of music from 6pm to 6:53pm and I wonder if there will be a DJ to relieve me after my shift at 10pm. We shall see.

Right now I'm going to RTFM of my digital camera.

I think I'll name it Shot. (maybe) Oh, for the record, it cost $399.99 and I paid $59 for a 4 year no-worries-mate warranty.

After reading the manual, I took some pics. The ones that do not feature people (except for me DJing) are those I took tonight. The DJing one is a self portrait I took using the timer function on the camera. I wasn't actually on mic, but just saying "blah blah blah" with headphones on. :-)
