Right now I’m in San Francisco meeting up with some bloggies 
More on that later.
This is my surprise!
I got a new-to-me Nikon D40 on Craigslist! It came with a different lens than the kit lens (one for longer distances), so I need to get a close-up lens too. The guy did give me the kit lens for free, but it’s broken – if I can get it fixed I might.
In between figuring out my camera and procrastinating, I found time to scare the cats.
Bo thinks I’m being stupid.
I love the camera. I made this for breakfast yesterday (recipe to come) – “brancakes“:
Nice picture, right? Back later. Happy Sunday! P.S. There’s a free concert today in Golden Gate Park featuring Train, Colbie Caillat, and Howie Day. It’s noon-5pm; Bobby and I will be there for at least some of it.
P.P.S. Bobby is going to start doing P90X and I might try some of the exercises with him. Any thoughts? (He was going to try training for a half-marathon, but I think this is a better option.)

Hooray for your new camera!
Oh, and I’d totally try out some of the P90X. I here it can be very demanding time-wise, but it’s a great workout.

Nice purchase!
I’ve heard nothing but good things about P90X! I haven’t tried it myself but know others who use it and have had great success!

The new camera looks awesome, but I can’t wait for that recipe!

Awesome new camera! I love that breakfast picture it took. You can definitely see the difference. I would love to have a SLR/DSLR myself

Nice find! I love my SLR and I’m sure you will too
I have P90X and I do really like some of the workouts. I especially like the Plyometrics one-definitely feel the burn doing that one!

Eating Bender posted a very thorough review of the P90X workouts. Sounds intense, but definitely a great way to get in shape. Go Bobby.
Congrats on the new camera Maggie. Exciting!
Bo totally looks like he’s thinking “What the hell?”
Brancakes – yes, recipe please.
