Flannel

My Dear Princess and Dear Fellow,

I had to give a presentation today. The same presentation was given by someone else two weeks ago and (apparently) it was a disaster. 

I wasn't there, I just heard about it afterward. But feathers were ruffled, hackles were up. The whole thing.

So I re-wrote the presentation to say pretty much exactly the same thing with different words. I flannelled my way through the meeting, being cheeky and saying things like "That's a really good point!" when it wasn't a really good point at all but you know. 

Flannel.

Anyway. So I got the result. The people who huffed and puffed two weeks ago were like putty in my hands. They agreed to do all the things I want them to do. I felt bad about it but also good because I am evil. 

And afterward Lee-Ann called me to show me her new fashion accessory. It is a scarf/hot water bottle contraption. 

"It's AMAZING!" she told me. "And I can do all the things while still having a warm neck! I can COOK! I can GARDEN! I LOVE it!"

She is going to buy herself a pink one next. 

I told the FOBS. We are all going to buy matchy-matchy ones.
