what a great day!!

it is way too late for me to be doing this right now...but I have to. we went to Eugene tonight with out Friends the Langs for the Swell Season Concert (which was what my mom would call a 'riot!) and we also selected a computer. we chose the apple macbook white, this year's model with the most memory for a white one. i am working on it right now, and ADORE it. sweetness!!! I am so excited. 

(and no we didn't sell our house yet...but our dinosaur was getting to be in a literal coma state)

things i won't hesitate to buy soon...and very soon.

we are in the process of selling our house, so we have been holding off on a couple of things that I want to talk about so that I feel that at some point they will become a reality. No, we did not sell it yet...I am daydreaming again, you know, for fun!
for me there are two things that I would like to get, and really need to get..since our computer is literally dying (it is very old) and we need a really good camera (need in this case, obviously very subjective!):

A MacBook Pro:
one good camera: There are three that I keep coming back to, confused as to really which is the best, if you have any imput...that'd be great.

I like: the SonyA200

The Nikon D40
The Cannon Digital Rebel XTi (400D)
I like them all, but there are drawbacks to them all as well. The cannon is great, and I love it...but I am nervous it won't "agree with" two amazing lenses I already have. The Nikon D40 also looks great, and gets amazing reviews, but it is only 6. something megapixels. The Sony (up top) is new and has a ton of megapixels, but doesn't have a live view LCD, but it does have an LCD. whew...that was a load of stuff.

So if you can answer any of my questions...or all of them....DO SO!!

daydreaming again.

I cannot stop thinking about this guitar...I have tried...and tried...but it is almost like an obsession. If you saw it in person and were at all interested in purchasing a guitar at the time, you might feel the same. It is made in Canada. The body is made from unvarnished wild cherry. the neck is sliver leaf maple, the top is solid cedar...it is so beautiful, and the sound is the best I have ever heard. I find myself itching to go back to the store and strum on it's magical strings again, but then maybe the spell would be even stronger and I would not be able to let it go ever again.

It is an Art& Lutherie, and it is the most beautiful guitar I have ever seen, the most beautiful guitar I have ever heard.
