Day 67: Ugh. It's only Monday.

All that stuff I said about liking being in control? Scratch it all. I was about ready to pull my hair out today. Filling in producing on a shift I'm not all that comfortable on is not fun. So, 3 satellite interviews (only 2 being on time), 2 of only 4 feature story live shots, and filling 4 minutes of lost time later, I emerged from my first day of fill in producing with a few grey hairs and in need of a giant nap. And that was only 2 hours in the booth! The thought that I have two more days of this makes me sag my shoulders in defeat. But, I shall get up, try not to work myself up over what COULD go wrong, and do it all over again tomorrow. I shall roll with the punches and know that while it doesn't always go according to plan, I'll leave having done the best job I could. Despite my easily frazzled-ness, dealing with the craziness does prove I know what I'm doing, I can think on my feet and I'm more capable than I often give myself credit for...so I've got that going for me. :)
