From bad to worse...

Today the lawnmower wouldn't start. Lots of blue smoke...a trip to Lowe's to excercize my 'warantee', a heated discussion with the customer service person, a chat with the zone manager, and the lawnmower is being fixed.

Went to teach class. Studio lighting demo and my camera battery is dead. Switch to back-up camera. Battery dead. Back-up battery dead. Student runs to other studio, brings back two batteries. Yup...both dead. 2-hours, no photos. Crap.

Get home and see this. *sigh*
