His walls are covered in his anime posters, most of them signed by voice actors, artists and such. His dvd collection has now surpassed 4000 and his hero scape game collection has taken over whole rooms. Must be fun to be a bachelor with extra money.
Being a bachelor isn't all it is cracked up to be. I'd be willing to give up the extra money to have someone to spend it with.

Got to order a new camera! Maybe this one will take better pictures. It's 12 mega pixles, 12x optical telephoto and 25mm wide angle. A Panasonic Lumix MCD-ZS5. Being my old camera was more than 4 years old, it was getting a bit out of date.

Hurray for new cameras!
My hubby's sister and her family are moving to Georgia- only about 4 hrs away from where I am now. Good news: they'll be here for about a month before we move back to MN, so we'll be able to visit them and see their new home before WE go home! I'm very excited for them!

That's nice Dinky. And your truck seems just fine, so far. A quart low of trans oil, the steering needs a new part, ect. But if you need things hauled back, Jason said he would come and haul it back for you. He has a heavy duty 3/4 ton chevy truck.

Lucy was trying the Cheshire cat thing, disappearing, starting with the tail.

Those are great pictures. I can't wait to see the cosplay pictures you take with that. :thumb:
