Nuttin today.
We hit the shopping trail yesterday after Thanksgiving Buffet in Mineola.
WallyWorld. A few little goodies for the youngest grandbaby. Then Mrs. Wayne picked out a Nikon P&S. Last, but not least, a pair of spiffy new BlackBerry Torches for FREE!
It was a good day. Shopping is done.

Slept in late, had home-made Phở (Vietnamese noodles) for lunch. Got LR 3 from Amazon, a bunch of 2TB HDs from Tigerdirect, then realized I still don't have enough space for all my pictures. Gonna order a bunch more. Then off to dinner with the ladies. Life is good today :)

Is LR 3 cheaper from Amazon? I need to buy the upgrade.
OK, I looked. Not enough to worry about. I'll buy from Adobe.

I held a D7000 in my hands but managed to summon inner strength and walk away, finished at Tom Thumb where it cost more for less. At home now but the D7000 is calling, do you hear?

Image wise GREAT, video hard to use, but not for me and I did not like the AF!
Maybe just me, I don't know.... and I got the Kit for $13501

Oh well, I will save for a D3s & 200-400!

Did Michael's last night and got some picture frames. Did Fry's today and got a HD. Did Target today and got some small items, like a CD, DVD and a children's board game. About to look at B&H, Sportsman's Guide and Apple online (supposedly Apple has a special ASMP members-only black Friday discount page that has some sweet deals)...

I got it on the lightning deal for $124, pretty good deal I think. Still don't know if I'm gonna use it though. Compulsive buy, I already got 2 of them LR 2.0 and still haven't upgraded because I don't see a need to upgrade, but see the need to buy it when it's cheap. Yeah, I know, I'm
