The Wedding Curse

So last weekend I went to wedding number 1 of 3. That is 1 of 2 I was expected as videographer, and then the third one in three weeks I will be photographer. To make a long story short, because I've told it a hundred times, my car overheated a few times, and eventually died of exhaustion. I didn't make it to the wedding and neither did the brother of the bride. So now I am out of a car. I hope that is over soon. Anyway - so I was afraid of wedding number 2 after all that. I made it there just fine and I think the videography part went very well. All in all it seemed pretty successful. So I was relieved.

Today, I finally got a chance to go after my laundry and get that washed. When I pulled my clothes out of the dryer, a heard something hit the floor - that sounded like plastic. I looked on the floor and it was half of the clear plastic case for a miniDV cassette tape. I reached furrther in and found that the main tape I used for the wedding yesterday was in the dryer. It had also been through a washer cycle. I came back and researched it and there was apparently no way the tape should still work - and even if it did, it could damage my camcorder because of the washed-off lubricant and possible soap. As it turned out, the tape copied just fine to my computer all up until the last 15 seconds that weren't important. Wouldn't be the first time that God performed a wedding miracle, but it still amazes me. And now next weekend remains - photography.
