Hey, I just got the best phone call from my fiance! Here's how the convo went...
Jeff: Hey that camera you want with that lens, can you get it with a cheaper lens?
Sandi: Yeah the one we are saving for is the 20D with the 17-85mm, but you can get it with the 18-55 which is almost $1000 cheaper.(here in Australia)
Jeff: Oh ok, well just get it with the cheaper one for now, so you can start to play with it, and we will go and pick it up TODAY!!!!!!

OMG Im getting my 20D TODAY!!!!!!
Prepare to be bombarded with new photo's, questions, and probably lots of mistakes!!! LOL

Im all nervous about getting a new camera.. how weird is that!!

actually, sandi, what you should be scared about is all the points you will be receiving on your credit cards as a result of all your upcoming photography purchases:p:p

Congrats!! I must say I'm very envious... but I'm also glad you've got a new toy to play with. I fell asleep with the manual several nights in a row.
