All dressed up and no place to go.
Tonight I showed up at my friday night guitar playing place and it was closed due to inclement weather. Wimps. I even brought two guitars because there's always somebody breaking a string or showing up with no instrument that wants to play.
I guess I've just been the usual me lately. Wanting to buy things I don't need. Worrying about money and bills and such. At least it looks like Coke is coming through, been playing phone tag with some bureaucrat about my start date. The character of Coke initially seems very much to be the massive slow bureaucracy that was described to me. At least it's a four day week albeit with ass-early workdays.
Also the Jazz band that I like to go see on Saturday evenings isn't getting together this weekend of the next, so It's going to be a rather musically sparse weekend I guess. But with the fresh snow there should be some good pictures to go out and find. Unfortunately the aperture on my 4x5 lens is hanging up and needs repair when I have a little cash. I still have my RB to fall back on. It's even heavier than my Speed Graphic though. Maxes out what my tripod can support. And the 120 back often acts a little funky.
Lizardo wants a DSLR. A sony to use them Maxxum lenses on. Vexing question as to how much you want to spend to be how current in the technology. Get a 10mp A100, ($600)or a 12mp A700?($1200) Also dpreview.com just had a report that sony's just announced a 24 mp sensor, so should I wait for that to appear in a camera, and how much is that going to cost? and what will be on the horizon then?
Whatever. I guess me not rambling about my neuroses makes for a short blog.
