Bad Plant Tape

Well, the plant finally died and I cued-up the tape with great anticipation. That's when the error message flashed: "heads need cleaning!" ARGH! Turns out we got NONE of the plant homicide shots on tape. Fortunately, I had a little digital camera set up as well and the stills turned out "OK." Some of them are out of focus because it's just a little crappy point and shoot... but I think they'll do. I need to buy a head cleaning tape and TRY AGAIN. Darn. I'm doing well, though. No panic and no temper tantrum. I think I'm just tired.
