Thats right, a new blog.

I have too many of these profiles, friends on every one of them who aren't anywhere else.

Frankly, I didn't even know I had this profile until I got an email begging me to come look at something.  It looks like Buzznet with a (un)healthy dose of preteen angst.  

So, please stop by and say hi.  http://chaosbean.wordpress.com/


If you have a blog, send me the link  chaosbean  AT gmail  DOT com  and I will  blog roll you.  

And, by new I mean about a month old, but hey

my most commented entry is  http://chaosbean.wordpress.com/2009/02/17/promises/]]></description>

	      <description><![CDATA[So, I have this new job, at a photography studio.  Oddly enough, taking and selling photographs.  I don't know if everyone knew that or not.  Now you do.

I still work at the daycare, and do the photography on weekends and some nights.  I love it, and I'm learning a lot (and making more money at the second job then the fulltime job. fucking fabulous)

So the opinions.  To succeed at the new job, I need a new (read: better and dslr) camera.  I don;t know what to get..

Do I pony up (and save half of forever) for the Canon EOS 1D Mark III?  Is it the best or is it just ungodly costly?

Or for almost 1/3 of the Mark III's cost, do I go for the Canon EOS  40D?  They both are 10 megapixals and will be obsolete in 3 years.  

Or do I get the Rebel XTI/EOS 400D, pay 500 less then I would for the 40D?  

Or brand loyalty be damned, and a Nikon D40x?  It means the two basic lenses I already have are useless but damn is the camera cheap.

But then maybe a D80 is better?  And i should save up for that?  

Then comes the discussion of which lenses I need most right out of the gate.  

all I know is that I "need" the creative aperture kit.

I am hoping that between my tax return and some economic stimulus money, I will have a good start to my savings.  I need the camera to make money, but I have to make money to get the camera.  I don't know.  I love the job though.  

I just don't have an extra 2 grand, and I never will.  I guess thats why I'm lost.]]></description>
