Why your wife should have her Leica!

[Sisyphus]

Right. My wife would reply, "Thank God. Simple sounds good to me." And then throw me my suitcases.

My wife tried that, but since I am bigger than her she is not able to get me to budge, so she gave up.

If I had to make a choice between Leica or my lady, I would keep my lady. But if she told me I had to stop being a photographer, then I would part ways since that is who I am.

Thankfully, I have the greatest girlfriend I could ever want, so none of this is even close to being an issue.

Your statement is truly sweet, and that should be the right choice, however if you only knew what I have to put up with, I think you would choose your leica.

UPS... I'll be waiting

I'm happy to announce that the M6 is coming in later this evening (currently 7:22am- Hawai`i time). 🙂

Congratulations indeed!

You made a wise decision, and you will soon find yourself sleeping with it at night.

Having been married once, I understand the impulses to spend the family money by the better half. This is a great investment by the way, and it's resale value will always be there. It's like buying a Harley or Indian bike. The name alone makes it a good investment.

Besides, youre the Queen of the castle. Just buy it and he will need to live with it.

Seriously though, very happy you are getting the camera. I hope the excitement and passion you had for getting it reflect in your new images. Will be quite nice.

I sure hope so. A day or two after the impulsive order I've been giggling at myself while looking in the mirror to wash my face. It's just so unlike me.... especially considering the difficult economic times we're all in. *shrug* Well, what goes around comes around I suppose.

🙂

Only thing that I'm really second-guessing is if I should have tried to at least consider the 35 cron as opposed to my 35 lux pre-ASPH. We'll see what kind of "glow" this thing produces. 😛 I have a roll of Tri-X and Agfa waiting for him when he gets here. Yes, my M6 is a guy... he's a dark, well-built, gorgeous hunk of machinery waiting for my soft hands to hold him. Hahahaa.. okay, I'm done.

Ciao.

35 lux . . . you can't go wrong . . . nor will your new man let you down. My m6 is a woman, and she has never disappointed me; She always performs well, never complains, makes demands, or spends money on the charge card--lol

good luck . . .

My wife and I have an "monthly allowance", set spending money that is discretionary. She typically spent hers on clothing, I spend mine on gear. The gear retains a large portion of its value, and typically can be resold. She has long since stopped asking why I need so many cameras.
