Nah, you won't. You'll adjust, reschedule, and move forward, because this is what you're meant to do. I can't wait to see it.

Broken. Hopefully it won't mess with continuity too much....
I am beginning to suspect there exists a deity, whose sole purpose is to prevent me from finishing his movie. He/she certainly tried today, lots of very bad things suddenly sprang up in the morning to the point where I was almost an emotional wreck, but the show went on. We got a very good chunk of stuff, a lot of it very funny. We did well. 
(((Cappy))) I'm glad it turned out in the end, but wish that you hadn't had to jump through hoops to get there.I am beginning to suspect there exists a deity, whose sole purpose is to prevent me from finishing his movie.

I am beginning to assemble the movie. All the pieces are falling into place, only a tiny bit of filming (not especially strenuous) left to do, so, if I'm lucky, it'll be finished next weekend. I'm on the home stretch, all the hard stuff is basically over. I'll make a trailer of some sort ASAP.
'Wow, Bob, wow.'
There may be one or two Twin Peaks references.....
We already had one, mate.....
That's what prompted me to make the comment, drongo.
I possibly may have already asked this, but what equipment are you using, out of curiosity? Not that I know much about that stuff, but I was wondering if you are either renting or purchased expensive equipment (I tried to get some friends of mine to pool our money together to acquire one of those pricey Canon cameras so we could make a film that looked like film to some degree, but we failed to get that going).
Also, and again maybe I already asked this, what is your ultimate goal? Do you want to be a director? If so, why? I always found that to be the least appealing part of the process (not that I ever directed a movie). To me, if I ever made a film, it would be for purposes of getting into screenwriting. Screenwriting to me is fun; being on a movie set I think would bore me. This is not meant to be critical, to be clear, just curious (my preference to write is just how I feel).

Bravo, Cappy! I can't wait to see it!
Just a hand-held digital one that I own. For the next instalment in the series (more on that at a later date), I'm thinking I'm going to try and get a budget of some sort via crowd funding, mainly to get better equipment.
I would love to be a director. Screenwriting is probably the most fun part, I'd agree, but I am a control freak, so I basically need to be there every step of the way. Being on the set is often fun, at least it was for this movie, 'cause I was with friends, but it can be very stressful, and I can get quite high-strung. So, yeah, I guess it depends on the person in question.
Just thought I'd give a quick rundown on some things you may wanna know:
- Yet another slight issue. The computer I'm editing on has gone berko, and, basically, all the white pixels have gone pink. This is irritating, and might slow me down a bit.
- All that is left to film is the finale (easy peasy) and some monologues of mine (even easier).
- As it currently stands, there is a LOT of swearing. "F" words and "s" words and "c" words everywhere, sometimes in strange and unusual combinations. I'm gonna talk to my actors about how much of it they want in (some of them may regret going overboard), but be prepared for a very rude movie.

So, like, are my ears going to explode from all of the profanity?

Frank from Blue Velvet would blush.
So, you're not old enough to see your own movie when you're done?
If it were to be rated, it's get an MA15+ (far too much swearing for anything lower, not realistic enough violence for an R18+), which actually would exclude at least one cast member from watching it, unless they were with a parent/guardian.
