gotta love it

today was finally pretty nice outside. a bit wet because of the melting snow, but spring is definitely in the air. 

i finally went out and got myself a bamboo fun pen tablet today. if you are thinking about getting one, run out right now and get yourself one! don't wait. i just installed the software and set it up and oh my god! its fabulous. fun. i may never use my mouse again. it comes with a pen/tablet and mouse. i can't wait to try it out with my digital endeavors. speaking of which, i had my first photoshop/photoshop elements class on monday. it was informative. a bit tedious, but i'll definitely learn what i need to know. i'm not sure why they say its for photoshop, we are using elements. i know they aren't that much different, but we are using basic aspects of the program. i am toying with the idea of getting photoshop cs3. i can get it at a discount with my bamboo fun tablet. cool. i've just got to stay home all weekend and hole myself up in the office with the mac, scanner, bamboo fun tablet & printer. i can't wait. 

speaking of cool technology, i went and got my time capsule yesterday. i've finally joined the network world. wireless. cool again. lovely little time capsule works with time keeper in osx leopard to keep my information backed up. thank you, apple. i just love everything apple. i always wonder what they will come up with next. i just wish i could use a mac at work instead of my old pc. hopefully i'll get a bigger monitor at work, at least. the one i have is so small. i can't hardly see it, especially in comparison to the beautiful mac i have at home. :)

i found the most wonderful magazine at the bookstore: digital studio. it is just full of ideas similar to what i want to be able to do with all of this digital equipment. beautiful things. creative things. just fabulous. now i just have to get busy and just do it!
