New Camera

For Graduation I wanted one thing, and one thing only . . . a new camera.  This week Cassie and I met my Dad, Mom, Kimberly and Jeremy for dinner.  It was Jeremy's last night in town and we needed to take some stuff down to Texas City so we crashed the party.  We showed up a little earlier than them, believe it or not the traffic was worse in bound than out bound on 45.  With time to kill I decided now was a great time to make the big purchase I have been waiting for.  I finally had time today to pull it out of the box and start playing, and man do I love it.  Expect tons more pictures in the future.  I had all of my pictures up on my mac account, but that has expired and I have been too busy to get them all on my web-site, but I will get it done soon so I can start publishing all the cool pics.  I ran down to Texas City to help Mom move some stuff and had the opportunity to take one last shot of Sammy before Mom decides to run over her again.
We had a good weekend.  It was the company Christmas Party last night.  One of the superintendents was stealing all of the attention by getting a little too friendly with some of the wives at the party.  I was reminded by many people not to make a scene at the Company party, so not to worry, I'm good till next year.  

Today Cassie and I went to lunch with some friends, and then to the Body World Exhibit at the Museum of Natural Science.  It was a really neat experience to see the inner workings of the human body.  Seeing what we are made of is just mind blowing and just reassures my belief in God.  Our body's are an amazing work of art, I know I appreciate mine more.  There were several eye opening features, but the most impressive was the set of lungs from a non-smoker and a smoker.  The smokers lungs were so dark and much smaller than the healthy lungs. You can only hope that every smoker who walks through there makes the decision so stop after seeing how harmful it is.

It's off to bed in preparation for an exciting week at work.  I discovered Saturday morning that I made a rather large screw up on a project that starts Monday, so I have very low expectations for tomorrow going well . . . can't wait to tell my boss what a dippy doo I am.

Have a great week, I'll hopefully get some more pics up soon.
