Search for a camera

I really would like to get a camera finally. However, I don't know what is good and what isn't. Will you write a comment and tell me about a camera you have/had and what you liked or didn't like? I especially don't want one that takes several seconds to take the picture after you push the button.
Thanks for your help!!

Food OCD?

Ryan and I were talking about food OCD people. We are both in that category, along with other family members. How many of you have the same symptoms? Here is how you know:
1. You sort your M&M's by color (and other candy) in your hand.
2. You have to eat the M&M's in a way that a pattern is kept. Examples: If Ryan has two blue, two orange, and one green, he has to eat one blue, and one orange, to equal one of each color left. On the other hand, you might follow my pattern, where if you have the above amounts, you eat the green one because it is the odd one out, thus maintaining equality.
3. You can't eat the same color twice.
4. Even if all colors taste the same, you eat specific colors first, and save your favorite colors for last.

I am sure there are other signs. These are just a few we noticed. Please share your OCD food story, I know you have one...

Left or Right?

K, just about everyone picked the boring goal. No, I am not trying to run the mile without dying. Sadly, I gave up on that a long time ago.
I am actually learning to write with my right hand. Why, you ask? I have no idea actually. I can't remember why I started. I started June(I think) last year just writing a small amount everyday. The past week or so it has finally gotten legible and more comfortable! It was an exciting breakthrough.
Maybe I am just preparing for the day I break my left hand...

Concerning Abraham Lincoln

Ryan joined the American Festival Chorus (the new choir Craig Jessop started). On Saturday was a concert they did celebrating Abraham Lincoln. It was pretty exciting! There are over 260 members in the choir. They had a soul singer from Florida come, and also Senator Bennett came and spoke. It was great music, and a great orchestra, and the best part is I got to see Ryan in a tux again! I think he needs to buy me a fancy dress so I can match him...
The others in the picture is Ryan's mom Terry(also in the choir), and his grandma. Ryan's family is full of talented singers. They overwhelm me with how great their talent is!
