for those hard-to-reach places, simply attach extension tube...

my ex knows something about extension tubes...if ya know what i mean...
wow...sorry...anyway
i'm at work...bored. go fig.
and with that boredom, comes a boring post, i'm sure. however, i need something other than the sounds of little photo-oners hard at work to keep me awake. so suffer with me you shall.

i've been looking at laptops online for the past few days, and i really think i'm going to get one. i was originally drooling over the apple mac books, however after taking a look and realizing that one of their models has a $300 difference depending on whether you want a black exterior or a white exterior, i kind of lost my enthusiasm for them. so then i got to looking at dell and hp, and both have a lot to offer, though i think right now i'm leaning towards hp. they seem to be a little bit better priced for what i'm going to want after customizing, so we'll see. i'm really just tired of my desktop that is over 5 years old, and even though it has been upgraded a couple of times within those five years, it really seems to be struggling these days. i have to trick it in order to get it to boot properly, and if you get too much going on at one time it likes to freeze up. i can't really complain...it's been a great computer...even if it was originally my ex's baby. my monitor is the one thing i'm going to hate to see go...i love that monitor. it's so beautiful in it's 19" of flat tube glory. i got it for free through a friend about five years ago as well, and he got if for free after taking it from work. can't complain about free. i may sell it on ebay, just to make some money off of it since it is in perfect working condition.
alas, i'm getting ahead of myself. there will be no getting rid of anything til i actually have a laptop in my posession, and that may be a little bit. here's to hopin' tho.
ok, so an hour and a half later and i'm back to actually posting this. i had to explain depth of field to dear sweet brian. we love him...he's just a little special ;)
alrighty...so, i have completely lost my train of thought and i think i'm going to go hang out in the digital lab with brian and jamie for a bit...cause that's why i get paid the big bucks.
