today finally put a bend in the bank plastic and jumped to the 5D MKIII...
Congratulations! I am sure you will really like the 5D MK III, its an awesome camera. BTW, which lens did you get for it or already have?
I'm like a kid waiting for christmas
Yes, buying new photographic gear and waiting for it arrive is always like the wait for Christmas morning ... every aspect of photography including the activities related to it (like shopping for a small stofen diffuser) makes me excited and feel young, even though my body does not always support that feeling

... well as they say, "the spirit is willing but the body is weak" ... thank God for online shopping, I don't have to move my sorry old a55 from the couch and still shop from around the world and find the cheapest deal ... Hallelujah

... online shopping gives me the luxury of extra time for making or editing photos instead of traveling for shopping.
