accept the temporary condition...

Occasionally one must learn to be content with what they have... or at least accept that temporary condition.

Aperture is $299 in the Apple Education Store. Which is nice, except I don't have that kind of money nor do I have a computer that could run it.

shucks darn... and I suppose it would be too presumptuous of me to think that the Valentine's Day fairy will be so kind to bring me the 5D this year.
