Well. I did it!

If you've been looking at my flickr, which some of you apparently have been, then you saw my Chihuly pictures, so I won't bother posting them here, but just in case you missed it, the entire set is here.

So. I won $250 from the super bowl. I bought 2 squares in one of those square thingies. One of my squares was the score of the end of the first half! $250 straight to me! (ok, $230 if you count the fact it cost me $20 to buy the squares. meh.) I took it as a sign to buy the camera I've been drooling over for years. I've talked about getting a DSLR since I bought Ted his SLR in 2003, so this is the one I got. The Canon Digital Rebel XTi, if you're too lazy to follow the link. I always said I'd get a Nikon, but I had such a wonderful experience with Canon's customer server with my point-and-shoot, that I wanted to stick with them.

Anyway, for those of you that haven't visited my flickr, some of the last pictures you'll see from the point-and-shoot that has served me well since the divorce:

(sorry about the small size, it's just easier, for various reasons I don't feel like going into, but clicking on them will embiggen 'em)

I always say John looks broken when he does this, but he didn't believe me until I took a pic
