Complete

After seven long days of waiting, I received a package in the mail today. Over 600,000 seconds after I purchased a new camera using the magic of the internet, it finally arrived in the mail.
The moment I held the camera in my hands, I felt a tiny piece of my self I didn't know was missing suddenly click into place. It was like the first time you fall in love and realize the world has twice as many colors as it did before. Or when you get married and part of your extremely fuzzy future becomes clear and focused as far as you can see. Or the first time you read The Dark Knight Returns and realize that for the rest of your life, a part of you will desperately want to be Batman. A feeling of completeness washed over me. The world's beauty and sadness and chaos is waiting to be captured, and I will be out there trying my best to capture just some of it.

    Yeah, dude.

    Also: I bought on of the new J.J. Abrams Phasers from Target today, and immediately thought of you.

    We should duel.

    Oh boy, how we should duel.
