Fuji XE-1 envy

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2012.11.13

I walked to the camera store where I normally develop my film, to drop off a roll. At the counter, I noticed that the fellow on my right was buying the Fuji XE-1 I've been drooling over for the past six months. "Nice," I told him, "you're very lucky."

Turning back to the fellow filling in the details on my film, I noticed that the woman to my left was also. Buying. The same. Camera.

(Note to self, buy beer on the way home. For sobbing into.)
