Tifffany's Ramblings

Tuesday, June 03, 2008

OK so I said I was going to post this last Saturday and I totally missed it, but with good reason (kind of). I was all set to go and take a picture of an amigurumi I had made and some that I was working on. But when I pulled out my camera, the (rechargeable) batteries were dead. All the other ones were dead too, and I know that the ones in the pocket of my camera case were fully charged. I don't know if the batteries are just losing charge or what. So I didn't have the patience to wait for them to charge and take more pics. But I am working on some more little critters and I will try to arrange a photoshoot with them when they are all (or some of them) completed.

So anyways! My birthday is this coming Sunday so we booked a quickie weekend trip to Niagara Falls! We tried using the priceline name your own price thing for the hotel... but it kept rejecting us even when I wasn't much less than their listed price. Like they had something for $160 and I bid up to about $120. You can save 50%, my foot!

So then we went to hotwire and I took a $139 a night deal for a 4 star but it turns out the hotel used to be like a 3star so they bumped it up. Not sure I am so happy with these newfangled hotel bidding tools, I think I will just go back to buying a hotel the good old fashioned way. Because after I looked up the hotel we got and found out our room type, it would have been CHEAPER to just book on their website, argh! But it should still be fun and I will try to remember to charge my camera batteries AND take the charger with me.

Until then... knit on!
