Gadgets!

Ok, for those of you that don't know.... I'm a closet gadget freak. Ok, maybe not so much a closet gadget freak as an out and out gadget freak, but who is keeping track. Given that, it has been a very exciting day for me! I got two new gadgets. Ok, so one of them really wouldn't technically be defined as a gadget I guess but it is still very exciting.

The first purchase was a new lenses for my digital camera. I have a Nikon D-80 camera which is a digital camera that you can switch lenses on and I bought a new zoom lens for it. The lens is a 70-300 zoom, which basically means I can make things really far away seem a lot closer. I am very excited about it because the main reason I bought it was for our trip to China. Less than three months before we go!

The second purchase is a true gadget. I bought a portable GPS. Specifically I bought a Garmin Nuvi 200. Now to be perfectly honest with you, I have yet to actually open this device because I'm trying to decide if I am going to have buyer's remorse and take it back! So I'm giving myself 24 hours and if I haven't caved by tomorrow evening then I am opening it up to play with it. I'm trying to justify to myself that I am just using my tax rebate (which I haven't actually received yet) to help stimualate the economy. Thats what we are supposed to do with them, right? :-)

Anyhow, I am off to bed because I need to go to the gym in the morning. I'll keep you posted on the buyers remorse!
