Distractions…and a compliment
At the party I did last night, someone brought along their 6 year old son and he was permitted to watch “Bee Movie” while I did my presentation…4 feet away. So I had to compete with Jerry Seinfeld and Renee Zellweger for the crowd’s attention.
My listeners were also distracted by the antics of the hostess’ exuberant dog. He was fond of jumping on everyone, snatching food out of people’s hands, and chewing all my pens. The hostess kept saying “He’s very clean!” Yeah lady, that may be the case, but that still doesn’t mean I want him gnawing my supplies. Why she couldn’t confine him to an adjacent room is beyond me.
On the plus side, upon my departure the hostess pulled me aside and said, “You do a very good party. I would recommend you.”
