Just being Camera Happy!

[Lynnie]

As many of you know already, I have gotten a new computer. I cannot express how excited I am to have it. Compared to my old one, well, there's just no comparison. It's so fast! And new! And compatible with more programs! And beautiful! And wonderful! Ok, enough of that...

Among the programs it's compatible with is my digital camera software and driver. I installed it today, and what d'ya know! It works!!! So I decided to have some fun and take pictures so I can share them.


Here's my new computer! It's an IBM Thinkpad T41. It's sitting on top of my old computer, a Thinkpad 600E (which is now folded up). You have no idea how much I love this thing!! And, ack, you can see my old couch, lol!


My desktop. I like this wallpaper, it's so artistic. I'm sure some of you have seen it before, huh? Heh heh...


This is my Bloo Hoodie, which I got from the CN online store last year. It's draped over my sewing chair in my bedroom. And it's directly across from the door into my room from the hallway. So as soon as I walk into my room, there's little Bloo, grinning at me. He's the second one to welcome me home every day (my cat is the first), he's so sweet, lol. He also glows in the dark, so after I go to bed, he's my little night light until I fall asleep.


This is my closet door. And the wonderful Foster's poster on it. I bought it hmmm.... almost a year ago now. It's a thick paper, almost a cardboard, and after having been stored for over a year in a poster tube (before my buying it), it still wants to roll. I had to wrap the tape all the way around my closet door to keep it flat. You can kind of see it's still wanting to curl up, though. Any suggestions on how to flatten it without ruining it?


I FINALLY got to the mall, and this is what I got while there! The brown paddle-ball Bloo shirt, the black waffle weave "Icy Chill" thermal top, the colorful hoodie (it's behind the two shirts, since we've already seen pics of it, but you can see the hood at the top), and the Bloo and Cheese lapel pins. I plan to put my lapel pins on my camel-back pack which I use when hiking. It's a boring blah black, and I've been personalizing and decorating it with pins. It's about time I have some Foster's ones to put on it. Ugh, they're on my bed, and it looks like a mess. Ok, yeah, maybe it is. But the fact is, I propped the blankets up more with pillows so I could get a better shot of the tops from an angle.


This is a drawing my sister did for me, which I have magneted onto my fridge. It would have been better with a scanner, but I don't have one of my own (yet), so this'll have to do. Bloo and Mac are both wearing jet packs. If you can't read what it says, Mac's saying "HELP! Bloo! What are you doing?" Bloo's saying "I will rule the World! Muwahahaha!" Ed's saying "I still like potatoes". Wilt is saying "Nice Jet Packs!" (Yeah, his bad eye is on the wrong side, but she doesn't know any better) And Coco is saying, and I quote, "Coco Coco Coco Coco". LOL! Yeah, really random, my sis is silly (there's a toungue twister!), and I love her. She's done a few others, too. Maybe I'll share them sometime as well.


And lastly, one of my other hobbies is dolls. Same goes for cartoons- You're never too old to play with toys! I'm a member of some clubs for adult doll collectors, and yeah, some might be surprised, there's a lot of them out there. It's fun collecting miniature things for them (like the little sofa, little toys, little kitchen utensils, little radio that you can barely see there at the bottom of the picture). It's also lots of fun making clothes for them, and then dressing them and styling their hair. Yeah, it's definately a "girl" thing though. Anyway, Hadassah is reading a fun story to her baby brother Preston, who is sitting on Fayelyn's lap. They all seem to be enjoying the book.

So, there you have it. Pics from Lynnie, because Lynnie is so happy and excited she couldn't help but take pictures so she can share them.
