Hi Julia,
Growing-up and being around well known doctors, lawyers, judges,
politicians, businessmen, athletes and artists and having a
father who casts a big shadow and even caused an uncomfortable
fear in some people, I am rarely rarely nervous around any one.
For I can talk with anyone because I am not intimidated by
anyone.
However, I was nervous to meet you. And, I was nervous around
you.
Thus, I drank way too much the day and night before and day of
meeting you and, thus, the beads of sweat from being overly warm
and trying to down play being uptight.
Instead of expressing how happy I was to finally be in your
exuberant, lovely, brilliant presence, I tried to be = a jerk.
I was actually so thrilled to see you in person and here your
voice and it was so cool to sit down by you when we were looking
at the shot in the camera.
Sorry for being so honest now and probably boring you with this.
I know you're busy and have so much going on.
Best of Christmas Roses,
John
