I've been giving some pointers on writing a press release in the last week and I realized two things. First, that I am so incredibly happy not to be immersed in the storm of "releasing" some corporate development to the media on a daily basis. I mean, who really cares that AOL bought some other small website or that some new executive got hired at one of the studios. Yawn. Secondly, I learned a lot more than I even care to know at this point. I'd like to put my years as a corporate communications monkey in the circular file, if you know what I mean. I'd rather change smelly diapers all day then hear another pep rally inspiring the team to arrive at 5 a.m. in order to release this "big" news. What a bunch of bull puckey.
Well, at least some one I care about is actually benefitting from my knowledge by torture. In the aftermath, I'm trying to reheat an entire chicken in the oven. No small task, my friend. In yet another scheduling debacle yesterday, I prepared a whole chicken that we did not eat. So it spent the night soaking in its own juices (i.e. fat globules) and now I'm trying to coax the thing to heat in the oven. Perhaps the Chinese leftovers will come to the rescue again.
I must sign up for my infamous writing workshop now before I miss the deadline or all the classes are full.
A bientot.
