OK, admittedly, this post has nothing to do with National Lampoon's Vacation, but somehow that is the quote I thought of when my computer told me I couldn't download my pictures from my camera today.
I'm out of disk space.
Really? I mean, how many pictures and video clips does it normally take to fill up a pc? Have I really overdone it?
I have all of our pictures from 2005 until now on this thing. I think I usually take a lot of pictures, but not nearly as many as some.
Ugh. Do I really need to start saving to CDs? I LOVE to be able to just flip through folders that I have named by month and year, to see what I'm looking for. If I have to start inserting disk after disk to find what I'm looking for, I'll go mad!
And of course, this is on the night a big Shutterfly offer expires. Wouldn't you know it?
I'm going to see if there is some external drive that can hold a lot of photos and videos. Our CD drive sicks at best and our DVD drive won't even recognize disks anymore.
I guess I can add this to my list of things to do. Tonight, I just want to be able to get some pictures into Shutterfly so I can use this package deal before it expires.

Get an external hard drive! Do not pass go, do not collect $200! Head right to your nearest computer accessory store (best buy, or similar) and buy yourself a hard drive.
We have a Western Digital 1TB external that backs up EVERYTHING. We have years worth of video, pictures and documents with plenty of room left. Well worth the $100 we spent.
Go buy one!
Got one! I may have even gotten the same one as you, from the sound of it. It was on sale at Best Buy today for $109. Woo hoo! My computer finally gets to "take a dump." I hope it feels better when it's done unloading!
