My BandH order comes tomorrow and I can't wait. I couldn't sleep lastnight and yesterday I had a nap and I dreamed about my order and woke up drooling.

Here is my Order

3 Pocket Wizards
Canon 24-70 2.8 L
2 Visitar 285s
Two light stands
Two umbrellas

I can't wait, I have no clue how I'm going to get to sleep. Its like tomorrow is Christmas or something. Or its that feeling you get when your girlfriend has been gone all week and she is coming back tomorrow and you know that you will have "fun" when she does get back.

God I can't wait...

I guess I'm the only photo nerd here who gets a hardon when I order new equipment lol

Sorry, not like that.

I have a lens in the mail, too, but I slept OK last night.

Yeah... As much as I like new lenses I don't get that excited about them... Go out shooting and use what you have right now instead of anticipating what you're going to get tomorrow. And for the record, I just bought a lens today, but I'll be sleeping fine tonight.

And in response to your title, the simple solution is to not buy anymore photography equipment ;)


Apparently I've been dubbed Foxy.

I'm with you. I have anxiety, so when I get excited about something, it's hard for me to sleep or concentrate on anything else.

It comes today. The only problem is one box is "out for delivery" and the other is sitting in the hub. They better get it to me because I cant use my lights without a light stand lol...

Ahh, the day I order the 200mm f2 IS... Sitting at the window at night with a cup of joe, watching the cars pass by on the road below, and staring off at the distant skyline, restlessly awaiting the moment of truth... Just kidding!
If I'm buying optics, I always go to the store in person. :D

I acquired an expensive camera so I can hang out in forums, annoy wedding photographers during formals and look down on P&S users... all the while telling people it's the photographer, not the camera.
