Not Again! Farm

I got to make a trip to the big city of Richmond yesterday.  I had to go buy paper and I wanted to get a gizmo to download the pictures from my SM card in my camera to my computer.  There just simply isn’t any place to buy either locally.

To make it a perfect trip and well worthwhile, I also got to meet Ned for dinner.  We met at BoneFish which is my favorite restaurant.  I am not big on bone fish usually but I have never had anything there I didn’t like.  They have the most scrumptious appetizer called Bang Bang Shrimp.

For a girl on a tight budget and who rarely gets to dress up, dinner was heaven!  The shrimp melted in your mouth and then I had some kind of Venezuelan white fish with a Rockerfeller sauce.  It was delicious and even better because I didn’t have to cook it myself plus I got to actually dress up in non-farm clothes and I had great company for dinner.

It’s the simple things in life that make me happy and aggravate me.  I got home with the paper and the gizmo.  I was excited to finally be able to download the pictures off my camera.  The gizmo was plainly and clearly marked to support SM cards but when I opened it, there was no slot it would fit in.  I dug out the little paper instructions that came with it and no where on THE INSIDE OF THE PACKAGE DID IT SAY IT SUPPORTED SM cards.  Grrrrrr!

Now I am stuck with this cute little media card reader that doesn’t fit my media.  It takes every other card in the known world but not mine.  I am faced with returning it to Richmond Office Max which will cost me more in gas than I paid for it or just keeping it and hoping that one day, I will be able to use it.
