Over the rainbow Stu

High, isn't it!

10 February 2005

296.
Okay, that's me up to date. I hate the thought of missing a day, and I hate it when it actually happens. So, please bear with me as I try to keep things in the right order. Gavin phoned this morning to see how I was getting on and to let me know that the D70 has just come down in price at Jessops. As soon as my overdue paycheck has paid off the credit card bill, I will be the proud owner of the beast. Anyway, the pain has somehow managed to find its way down into my leg now. Sitting is not a pleasant experience (nor is standing or lying down, come to think of it). I got a second medical opinion, which just confirmed the first (surprise, surprise - as if one doctor is going to contradict another doctor in the same surgery). Short of going to casualty, there is little else that can be done - although I think that I will take a chance on the chiropractor. So, still on the medication, and still running into these little critters crawling over my office stapler. When told what it's function was, they just laughed and insisted that it would never catch on.

Love these critters that keep popping up in your room,Stu! I can't wait for you to get you D70 and feel better soon.

I do hope you are able to get rid of the pain. It must dominate your life!
Maybe they could amputate ;0 LOL.

Chiropractor.... the modern equivalent of a snake oil salesman....

Aww Stu, I'm sorry that you are still struggling this way. It sounds misterable. I hope for a much better day tomorrow. I am enjoying this series with the little fellows who are kind enough to update us on your condition. Chin up my friend.

Perfeita composição e luz! Então o D70 vai chegar dentro de pouco tempo.

kind of a blutakbeast trampette?
Karen Leaf11-Feb-2005 05:07
He's waiting with great anticipation the arrival of the D70.... Will he be discarded and replaced by the next passion, or included in the celebration. Ah, the uncertainty!

Do hope you're a little more up and about Stewart.

I was hoping you were better by now....my son wants me to get a D70, but I haven't mastered the Coolpix 4500 yet..LOL. I'm enjoying your critters!

He looks a little like a bear! Nice lighting!
Herb 11-Feb-2005 02:02
A Nikon? Come on, go Canon. Just joking the Nikon D70 is a good camera, although the Canons are better. I have to stop this.....

Staples rule, OK. Enjoy that D70 when it comes, DSLR is a whole new world but the body is just the beginning, watch out for lens fever striking next !

This wee guy has got a real face of concentration going on!

I've a rusty pen knife if that would help - and I used to help out at the local vets a kid!!
Guest 10-Feb-2005 21:56
He actually looks deep in thought, they are starting to look seriously real to me!

Strange little creature. Nice in black and white.

b/w blob!
Guest 10-Feb-2005 21:49
The D70 will certainly be some fun! As for the back pain, I know that sure isn't! Best thing is to keep stretching and moving though so those docs were right :oP Good excuse to keep going out to snap photos.. Or perhaps to make the trip to the camera shop for the D70 ;o)
