You know how when you see guests on those 24-hour news network programs? Do you ever wonder if, prior to that segment, the guest in question:
• Arose 2 hours earlier than usual
• Prepared her kids for the arrival of their grandmother
• Dressed, fretted over her hair, fretted over her makeup
• Came dangerously close to having her outfit ruined by a blowout diaper
• Waited to be picked up by a car service
• Loaded the baby and big brother (official baby-holder) into the car
• Rode two hours into the city
• Rushed to Starbucks to get something to eat before the segment started
• Realized that the food options at Starbucks totally stink
• Breastfed in the TV studio’s bathroom (I am not a bathroom-nurser generally but NOWHERE ELSE TO SIT)
• Got all rigged up to microphone, headphones, etc
• Waited around for 25 minutes trying not to get too nervous
Just to share about 15 seconds of her thoughts?
Well, now you know. Sometimes, that’s the way it goes.
That sounds about right.
Can you imagine what those people go through when they do the full hour Barbara Walters specials?
shoot!
it sounds better than the totally hilarious dream i had that you were telling me about it. i know, why did i dream about you? but i did and it was very, very funny.
