Cool On The Exterior, Warm Within
Knackered

For some reason, tonight's media party totally wiped me out.
Maybe it was having to stand in my heels for hours and my feet were totally screaming for mercy. It was sweet relief when I finally sank into the wonderfully cushioned seats.
Maybe it was me still recovering from my recent bout of flu... on top of that irksome ailment that plagues us girls every once in a while.
So there I was, going around the bar, flitting from group to group exchanging business cards. Couple of hours later, I was feeling the strain. Grin plastered, trying hard to look engaged in the conversation I was having, while taking deep breaths to rid myself of that stuffy feeling in my chest. Not that the company wasn't good; met quite a few new journos, put a few faces to the names and was pleasantly surprised when I bumped into the sister of a primary school friend.
I am just so damn shagged. Which is pretty abnormal. And I'm just soooo glad to be able to take a break from making small talk and type my thoughts out in peace.
I was simply not in the best form for PR-ing tonight, I think. The best thing that can happen to me now is probably a nice hot shower, followed by a soothing all-over body massage to get the kinks out and then sliding into blissful unconsciousness.
Good night world. I promise you will get a chirpier me tomorrow morning.
