Okay, my teenager is in his high school play, and Dh is going to videotape it on Saturday....we don't use ourcamcorder often, so he breaks it out to charge the battery, check to make sure all is well and test it out (he's a bit nutty about being prepared) While testing it out to see if he can pick up sound well enough from a distance with the built-in mic, HE TAPED OVER THE FIRST 15 MINUTES OF MY DAUGHTER's 3rd BIRTHDAY VIDEO.....the part where she wakes up and comes downstairs in all her sweetness and opens her cards so carefully and she's still in her jammies And then we surprised her with her backyard climber and she lights up seeing it in the backyard.
I am SOOOOO mad at him because in all his "checking" he never checked to make sure it was a blank tape stuck in there!!! He is the KING of checking and re-checking. He works with computers, he is a licensed pilot, he is a VIRGO, for goodness sakes. Well, when we realized what happened, I didn't freak out, I just couldn't believe it. At least the part with her cake and singing is on there, but it made me so sad. Thanks for letting me vent.
