I think I've decided to get a digital camera. Yes, I will charge it. It wil lbe the cheapest I can get away with, but it will be mine, and I will take pictures with it. The time has come. I cannot live any longer without documenting my memories. Things are just getting interesting!!

This may become a photoblog!!

After all, how much have I wished that you all could see the lamp my sister made, and sits beside my monitor because I'm too lazy to bring it back to her? Abu's daily antics. I don't imagine myself to be a photographer, in reality, I suck at taking photos. But having a digital camera will allow me to practice without spending a fortune on film, and give me a new outlet to communicate. So much of what I think has no words to go along with it, and sometimes I just can't think of anything to say here.

So tomorrow I go shopping. With any luck, Thursday will feature a pretty pic to commemorate the momentous addition to my life. And August first will shine with the faces of all the African children that I encounter on my African journey.

So tomorrow I take my car in to get the air conditioning fixed, and while I wait, I will go shopping. yay!!

Other than that, there's no news. I've cleaned the inside of my car in anticipation of my road trip to Regina. Acclimatizing Abu to the back seat, to where she will be banished when there's other people in the car. Wednesday I'll dye my hair. Thursday I get my shots for Africa. Friday I pack everything in my car and go to bed super early.

Each of those days I will need to do my second job. Needless to say, it's a busy week.

At approximately 2 am Saturday morning, I will get in my car with my dog, and drive west. The sun will rise behind me and follow me all the way down the high way. The sky will turn colors and I'll watch the sunrise in the rearview mirror. It will be wonderful. It will be satisfying. It will be freedom on wheels, and I can't wait to just drive away.

Praying for wisdom and guidance as I try to figure out what direction my life will take.

Well, sometime tonight I have to go to work, but I'm all distracted by Fried Green Tomatoes on Superstation. I'll be happy when the day comes when I only have one job, when I can come home after a hard day's work, and just stay put until I fall asleep.

Ah well..... away I go.
