I've been commissioned for a photograph for a 2012 calendar, i have been signed for an event in july which means i will have my images printed in a county magazine and a local paper and i got one of my pictures published in computer arts magazine (albeit tiny proportions)

all happened at once

Congratulations! You've officially moven up in the photo society

i think i'm going to treat myself to a 50 1.2L

I would kill a person for that lens. Unless you get one I don't know anyone who owns one. Its probably safer that you don't buy it. ^^

remind me not to invite you over for dinner

Reminded. Yesterday was pay day for me so that's my excitement. and also the reason why im treating myself. Although i do that every paycheck.

Just deciding between the 55-200 VR and the 55-300 VR only 30$ difference

out of them two get the 55-200. super zooms always have inferior image quality

get the nikon macro 105. (old used MF one - still amazing image quality)

I has one.

Gratz!!!!
You must be really excited!!!
