Kick Me

I'm just printing all day. Printing, printing, printing. About 20 prints to get out. And everything was going well until - you guessed it - I couldn't find a negative. What is wrong with me? I could picture the strip it was on. It was for a 5 x 7 print ($25). And after spending two hours looking for it - I remembered that I had been in the middle of filing negs. the other day - and hadn't finished and sure enough it was in that pile. So kick me.

It's bad because it ain't the first time and I know it won't be the last that some neg. disappears. The problem is that there's always a different reason. A few weeks ago it was because I had pulled a negative from the file system (at least I have one) because so-and-so wanted a high-rez scan. Did I re-file it afterwards? No. I just left it in a pile with some other stuff.

Most probably some of these negs. end up where my socks end up. I can buy a million pair of socks at the beginning of the year but by the end of the year only two are left (I'm wearing them now).

Oh and on top of that - my healing brush cursor which used to be a nice circle just turned into the healing brush icon and I'm too proud to ask someone who knows why that happened. I changed all the cursor preferences but no luck. When you select the source with the ALT KEY you get a nice circle - and then when you go to zap something you get this stupid healing icon which doesn't show me exactly what it is healing. What did I do to deserve this fate? Must be bad karma for doing too much marketing and getting too many orders.
