the coolest

So...I know I mentioned Alex and I don't really get into Valentine's Day, but the truth is that we don't really do much gift-giving in general.  There's something about having a shared bank account that sort of sucks the romanticism out of gifts for me.   And although I know I contribute to this family, I'm not the one out there making the actual money (with the exception of my freelance gig), so I have a little trouble buying Alex gifts with the money he makes.

ANYWAY!  I ended up with a very cool surprise this Valentine's Day. Check it....


It's a Lomography Fisheye #2 camera.  It. is. so. cool.  Even the box is cool.  I must admit...I'm a little intimidated by this camera.  It offers so many new photographic possibilities.  I've never even imagined the world through the eye of a fish, so this should be interesting.  I'm especially excited to have this camera in my bag during my upcoming trip to New York.  Hopefully I'll end up with a picture something like this.  Stay tuned for some fisheye pics.

And this cool little camera is just further proof that I am married to the coolest guy ever.

And what's up with this trip to NYC? What absolute fun! I'll just be a few miles north of you visiting my family in Boston. Have a great trip!
