Aaarggh

Today is a day for venting.

You have been warned. :)

Sigh. So first off, my digital camera died not too long ago. I went to a friends wedding, brought the camera, even remembered to put in fresh batteries. I got a few pictures of the location, the cake and the table of gifts. So then we head outside for the ceremony, and then...nothing. My camera display showed nothing but black. I tried taking pictures to see if maybe just the display was messed up. Nope, I got some nice pictures of nothing but black. All my trouble shooting points to pressing the display button (which I did, repeatedly) or replacing my camera.

Then last night while I had a friend over doing screen printing my exposure bulb blew before we got a screen burned. And me, being the incredibly prepared person I am did not have a replacement one. So I called around today and the only places that have the type of light I use are currently out of stock. Sigh. And I have 2 different designs I need to get done by this Saturday and I haven't burned the screens yet! ...And I can't afford 2day shipping to buy one online! Looks like I'm off to either beg the boyfriend to order me a light bulb, or try and see if I can figure out the timing to make a normal household bulb work. (Tried 40 minutes last night, and it started to work, but most of the emulsion washed out, next I'll try an hour I guess).

Ok, breathe now.
