Em and I are really excited for the trip. It's just about the only thing we can think about. A couple days ago, I went on Bestbuy.com to find a larger memory stick for my camera. They had the one I wanted on sale for $76, so I called the store to find out if they had it in stock and if the internet price was the same as the in-store price. They said that they had a bunch in stock, but it would be cheaper to buy it over the internet and pick it up in the store. So that's what I did. About 30 minutes after ordering, I got an e-mail saying that my item was pulled from the shelf and available for pickup at the front of the store. When I got there, it was not pulled from the shelf and the manager informed me that the memory stick was out of stock. Naturally, I was pissed. They searched all over the store and in the warehouse and eventually found one. I took it and left. When I got home, I found out that the memory stick didn't work with my camera. Crap. I went back, returned it, and asked for one that would work. They took literally half an hour to tell me that the one I needed was out of stock. Abe told me a similar story of poor customer service at Best Buy and that he had been boycotting the store ever since. So, we went to Circuit City, found the memory stick and were out of there in under five minutes. Lesson learned.

On a more upbeat note, IPhoto rocks. I would have never used it, but my dad just got a new Mac (it took a while to convince him, but Em and I finally did) and tried out the program. As a new Mac user, he needed my help figuring out the program. I played with it for a while on my computer and saw the power of IPhoto for myself. I can't wait to get prints and photo books!
