Everybody Stay Calm

My camera is broken. Do. Not. Panic. Let’s think this through.

OMG.  My camera is broken!

Kaput. Card will no longer read kaput. I used to be able to jiggle it.  Now nothing.

OMG!!!! MY CAMERA IS BROKEN!!!! WHAT AM I GONNA DO NOW?

Somebody hand me a paper bag, I’m starting to hyperventilate.

Dear Santa.....

Is the camera broken or is it a bad card? You could just throw the whole thing in the trash and get a new one for yourself... call it an early Christmas gift? Woo Hooo.

I hope you've been a good girl... maybe Santa will bring you a new camera for Christmas!

Very funny, Sara.

I thought I heard some screaming coming from the east of here. Was that you?

Benita said...

All I want for Christmas is a new cam-ra, and new cam-ra, a new cam-ra....

Definately needs to go onto the "I need an early pressie now" list

This is one of those times you wish you had one of those sirens you could slap onto the roof of your car (like Starsky and Hutch had) and could make your way WITHOUT STOPPING
to a camera store for a consult/ repair/ and purchase if necessary!

Good Luck.

The last time I lost my digital camera (for a month or more!) I found it in the recycle box in the garage...the one where the cans, bottles, plastic get tossed to be sorted later at the dumpster by the grocery store. I'll check and see if yours is there!

Broken, what do you mean broken!! That can't be! I would just die, and be at the camera store immediately to replace it. Good luck.

Dear Christine I've heard you've been a good girl this year (well, there are varying degrees of good). 17 more sleeps and maybe, just maybe you'll find something special under your tree. Love Santa

I panic when I can't see mine. Once in a while I forget it in the barn and I have palpitations. Walmart trip? Best Buy? Camera shop? Depends on your budget.

Stay calm-------Santa is coming soon! Be sure to be a good girl for the next two weeks, you don't want to get on his naughty list now.

Start visualizing your perfect camera coming to you very soon. See yourself taking pics...uploading those pics...entertaining us with more wonderful cameos of Thelma and Louise...I'll say a little prayer too!! It will all work out perfectly.
Hugs!

I had a similar feeling when I ran over my camera with our tractor and mower. A kind blog reader sent me a free used one. Hint, hint...

TIME FOR A NEW CAMERA!!!

And NOT from Santa. You'll need it BEFORE Christmas! Like today.

I went through this six weeks ago. I finally caved and bought new. Love my little Canon!

That happened to me when we took our big train trip to Boston. Just as I was about to take close-up pictures of my favorite Red Sox players at batting practice, the lens jammed. Later, back at the hotel, I checked the internet to see if there were fixes, and there were. I eventually learned to smack it hard against my hand when turning it on, and it actually works every time. I figured I had nothing to lose, since the warranty was up, and the repair charges from the company (Canon) were almost the same as buying a new camera. Now, I just use the camera as it is, although in my initial panic, I almost bought a replacement.

So, hang in there is my advice.
