New camera, new year

Yesterday I went out and bought myself a new camera.

I found out this morning that my parents were planning on getting me one for Christmas. Oops. I guess that's why you're not supposed to buy yourself things before the holidays. I feel bad, but I needed to do a little shopping therapy. And I really love my new camera! :)

I have heard of a couple of people doing a 365 picture project. I was thinking of starting one in January and take one picture each day of 2009. I think it would be cool to see a whole year of my life in pictures. And since it's so close to a new year I thought I would start it then. So much can happen in a year. It'll be fun to see it!

Speaking of things that can happen in one year...
I found out my work Christmas party is on the 15th. That's the exact day my Christmas party was on last year. AKA the day I met J. It really bums me out, but I'm determined to have fun that night and not dwell on the coulda-woulda-beens. Well, try not too. The people I work with are great and should help keep my mind off of it.

I'm off to drag out the Christmas decorations, and bust out my chocolate Christmas countdown. Too bad the chocolates are teeny tiny. I could use some serious chocolate therapy now that I've exhausted my bank account on top of everything else!
