Bummer: I wasn't organized enough to have made plans for yesterday, and took long enough deciding whether I was well enough to go out that it probably didn't matter anyhow.
Bonus: I did feel well enough, late, to get up on the roof to watch fireworks.
Bummer: Silly me, using a long lens at night, I didn't think to use a cable release. Whoops. (I did eventually realize my mistake and start using the camera's timer.)
Bonus: Though I didn't get anything really great, I did get a few decent shots anyhow.
Bummer: The weather kept the city's fireworks at the harbour low enough to be mostly obscured by trees from my house.
Bonus: The weather was so comfortable I was tempted to haul my tent out to the roof and sleep out there. And it was just windy enough to foil mosquitos.
Bonus: I can see lots of other fireworks displays from my roof.
