Diaper Diva lost her camera. Yup. Her nifty digital camera. You’ve heard of the dropsies, when you keep dropping things. Well, she’s got the losies.
Diaper Diva has the losies.
And Diaper Diva is very hard on herself. “I lost everything I own during my vacation week in the Hamptons.”
The self-flaggelation continued.
“Maybe it fell off the roof of the car, too.”
We checked the car, all the beach bags, every inch of the house. It was just like the day before when we searched EVERYWHERE for her temporarily lost iPhone. In that case, a Good Samaritan found the iPhone on the side of the road and phoned Diaper Diva.
But last night, Diaper Diva was frantic to find her camera. Not just because she cares about her nifty Canon Power Shot. No, it’s not just about the camera.
It’s about the pictures, stupid. Diaper Diva took 50 priceless shots of Ducky and OSFO on the beach, at the pool, at the house, in the backyard.
Priceless photographic mnemonics of a lovely week. Smartmom is still mouring the loss of a camera and memory card she lost in Russia filled with incredible pictures of Ducky.
Smartmom tried to console her. Diaper Diva wouldn’t be consoled. Oy, that girl loves to feel sorry for herself, Smartmom thought. But Hepcat wisely said, “Let her mourn the loss of her camera.”
He may not have used the word “mourn” but it was something like that. Still, he understood (because he’s always losing his keys and other worldy pocessions. WHERE ARE MY…).
So Diaper Diva fumed. Hepcat was understanding. And Smartmom went into the bedroom with air conditioning and read an interview with Winona Ryder in Vogue.
Winona still has those crazy eyes, but I’d still date her. And try not to lose her, like Diaper D would. Even if it’s just in magazine form, I wont lose her.
Only 50 photos of Ducky and OFSO? What kind of Diaper Diva does she think she is? Losing cameras really stinks…but you can always replace a camera…but never the photos on the memory card!
