Well, yesterday was good news/bad news day, and right in a row, too.

I lost my camera on the closing night of Flora Horror. I used it to take a few pictures of the set and for Moira to take a shot of Omar and me, then I put it on the dressing table next to my cell phone and after that I saw it no more.

We cleaned and cleaned and threw out stuff and bagged up all of our props, and I forgot about my camera until later, when I couldn't find it. I looked in my bags of props, it was not there. Omar and Moira looked in their bags of props, they were not there. I emailed everyone in the evening asking if they had seen it, but to no avail. I gave up, figured that it must have been thrown out, and started looking around to see if I could get another of the same camera for cheap.

Last night, Mom and I were going out to this casting seminar. "Put on makeup!" she called from downstairs, so I got out my makeup bag. And in it was my camera. Hooray! I ran to the top of the stairs and called out, "Mom, I have my camera!" and she answered, "I have bad news. Cynthia called, your rent check bounced."

So I couldn't be happy about that camera for one minute before the bad news part of the equation came crashing down. No fair!

I had deposited a check before leaving town, I checked to see that the check had cashed before telling Cynthia that it was okay to cash her check, but then the stupid check in my account uncashed itself!

Hugely annoying, and of course Cynthia is pissed as shit. But I do have my camera back, and the picture of O and I in costume as Bucky and Waffles. I look as big as a whale (if that's what I look like when everyone tells me how much weight I've lost, God help me!), but I'm glad to have it.

And it's a beautiful day again.

Today's horoscope:
Don't expect many extra points for taking the long way around an established short cut. Others call it worthless, but you see it as common sense. Forget about fashion. Dress for comfort.

One year ago today:
Unfortunately, there was absolutely nobody there. And by nobody, I mean three people. Which is nobody.
