Over the Rainbow Charm SwapI'm participating. I don't technically have a blog (yet; yes, I've been thinking about it) so here's my link. I'm at the internet lounge to check my e-mail before I go to the quilt store. Plus, I think the quilt store opens at 10 anyway. So, I'm enjoying a perfectly made chai tea with whole milk. Perfect temperature. I haven't been here in a long time so I don't remember the coffee experience quite so much but in looking over the menu options I had an inkling I enjoyed their chai lattes and so here I am. And I was right! Gonna have to leave a tip, something I've been doing more of at places where a tip is not "required".
Also, I really really want a camera. I've been looking at a Nikon Coolpix mostly because I've seen it at various places in the last few months for only $100 and I know Nikon is a great brand for cameras. I have an older Canon (4 megapixels) that got way too much sand in it since we went to California two or three years ago and has been slowly deteriorating. And if C.J. can go to the Mac Store and buy a Mac Mini (which is going to be mine in a few short weeks once he plays around with it!!), I should be able to get a $100 camera! I only want it so I can get back to taking pictures anyway and I do need something digital so I can 'see' the picture beforehand since I don't have uber fancy photo editing software (next on the list but I'll have to wait 'til I'm a student again for that one LOL!). But yeah.
Today, after taking Aria to school, I took the rapid transit to downtown Eugene. There is some massive construction going on right across from the bus depot and in walking past it, I decided I wanted to get some pictures. I must have identified at least five more pictures I wanted to take in my 2 block walk to the internet lounge. I feel unemployed right now even though I'm not. Hours got massively cut at work and I'm not kidding when I say that within 14 days I get something like 15 hours. That's it. Portland is looking better all the time.
Anyway, I better do what I came here to do before my time runs out. Later!
Edited to add: Man, lj did not like her code for the button so here I go button-less. Oh well. No one's going to visit this lj anyway so it's not a big deal. Sheesh that was a pain. From my measly memory of html code, it was flawless so it's not her, it's lj. Or maybe it's just me.
