Doing Dallas - the bad

There is very little bad to say about the conference. In fact only one thing. I lost my digital camera on the second day. I tried not to panic about it and apply the Kristie rule - as long as I don't look to hard, it's not really lost. But by the fourth day I was looking hard and couldn't find it. I thought at that point I had two choices, continue to have a great time, or get totally upset and let it ruin my trip. I went for option 1.
But I am really upset about it for a number of reasons. I didn't get pictures of Dallas or any of the people I met. It had all my previous pictures still on it, all my Zina pics, those of Arthur the Dog, the library, the weather - every picture I've taken using it. Thank goodness I already downloaded them all to the computer. But still. Also that was a very expensive little camera. When I got it I purchased extra insurance but I don't know if that covers losing the whole thing or just if it's damaged. It wasn't quite expensive enough to put through on insurance though. If I do make a claim what with paying the premium and then paying higher insurance for just making a claim it's not worth it . I'll have to keep my fingers crossed when I go to Future Shop.
I did leave them my name, phone number and address at the hotel in case it shows up, but I'm not holding my breath on that one.
So *sigh* those hoping for pics will have to check out other blogs like Dear Author or SB's.

'til later
