I STILL CAN'T FIND THOSE DANG MINI DVS! This is actually bugging me A LOT. I keep having dreams where I find them and return them. In the dream I'm so relieved and so happy, and then I wake up and realise that it's just a dream... and then I feel so awful and hopeless. I know it sounds silly to be so distressed over video tapes, but these are really important. And they're way overdue. I've practically torn my room apart, but I still can't find them. I've looked in all the spaces where they're supposed to be, looked in the oddest places, looked in the same places over and over and they still refuse to turn up. I can't think of any other place where they could be.
Superpowers would come in really handy right about now. I wish I could go back in time to the time when I was packing up those tapes to see where I put them. Or x-ray eyes to look through every cabinet, cupboard, box, object. Or good memory to REMEMBER where I put them. Hey, good memory would be a super power to me, she whose brain is like a sieve.
But on a happier note...
My dad has agreed to the loan! I am so, so happy!
However, my dad is in the middle of the ocean, en-route from LA to Japan, so it'll be a while before he gets to send the cheque. But there's a very good discount that is only until the end of the month, so I'm going to have to borrow a part of the money from someone else until the cheque gets to me.
Well, I won't let the missing tapes get me down, not when I have something to be happy about now. If they're here, they will turn up. They BETTER turn up. Please turn up? - 2002-08-19 08:17:59 I see dead people.

My mom almost fainted this morning. When I woke up, I saw her slumped against the sofa looking pale and wan. I asked her what was wrong and she said that she had started feeling nauseas at the breakfast table, decided to go to the living room and nearly blacked out on the way there.
When I touched her, she was burning with a fever, so I gave her a couple of Panadols. In half an hour she was perspiring profusely, but her fever was down.
I had to go out to do a shoot today, but I told her to call me if she felt worse. On returning, I found her still sleeping on the sofa. She's much better, but she still has that awful pallor. I told her not to go to church tomorrow. I've also decided to stay home and keep an eye on her.
I just went down to the shop to get her a coke. Hopefully the sugar will help.
All the women in my immediate family suffer from low blood pressure, but I get the worst blackouts. They're pretty awful - blackness invades your vision even though your eyes are wide open, nausea, cold sweat, giddiness that makes you feel you have to hang on to something or get flung off... it feels like I'm going to die. And I look it too - my mom almost panicked when she found me swooning in a toilet cublicle in a Mexican airport a couple of years ago. My lips had gone white, my eyes had rolled back into my head and my legs had buckled, sending me sliding down the wall.
I hadn't told anyone I was going to the loo, so I wondered how long it would take before my family started looking for me. However, it didn't take long for my mom to realise I was missing and for some reason, was struck with an uncharacteristic sense of worry. When she came into the toilet and called for me, it sounded like salvation. But I found it hard to even raise my voice to attract her attention, much less open the locked cubicle door.
Anyway, she finally got in, where my mom frantically rubbed Tiger Balm (yay, Tger Balm!) into my temples and under my nose, which brought me to my senses. After that I felt better, but very, very sleepy. And somewhat embarrassed. But it did feel nice to bask in the concern that my family showed when my mom told them I had fainted in the loo. My dad and sis are somewhat constipated when it comes to showing they care, so it was nice to see them a little spooked for me.
Anyway, I'm going to keep an eye on my mom, and if she feels worse I'm taking her to the doc. -
