Very first macro ever!

I've decided that I love macro photography above all other kinds... I like how tiny things that are usually overlooked can be beautiful. I found this eraser, and I liked looking at the writing on it (don't ask me why, I'm a strange person) so I decided it could be the subject of my first attempt ever at a macro.

 

I have an issue! My camera (a Nikon Coolpix P60) only lets me change the aperture from F3.6 to F8.5. I'd really love to be able to mess around with depth of field. Does anyone know how I could do that with my current camera, or an affordable new one (with better macro capabilities, of course) that I could get if I sell the one that I have? My Nikon is worth about $200. Thanks a lot!
