I seem to stir things up

Today was such a fun day of firsts. I visited an extremely rural part of the country in the midst of national forests to visit my client's plant sight. It was my first time in this geography and my first visit to one of my client's plants.

I also met reporters and politicians from the area - all really big fish here - and executives from the company I had never met. They were all very nice and humble. 

But the plant workers didn't know what to do with me  I'm just a girl trying to earn a living, but every time I walked down a sidewalk the plant workers smiled and waved. Maybe they're just really friendly. 

After the event this morning, I had to email pics to a few reporters who were on deadline. It's so rural here that They bad me use their WiFi via DSL. Really. With two web mail services going at once, I was getting the pics to them...slowly. 

I seemed to interrupt the day, although I didn't mean to. But then every member of the iT department had to stop and comment on my purple phone charger and question why all of their equipment was black or ask what kind of laptop I was using or if I needed a bigger screen. Then they came back to chat and introduce themselves. They  were curious who I was and why I was there. So one at a time I explained...before my netbook battery died and before I had to start the long drive to the long flights home. I shook hands and smiled and started feeling like those local poticians who were up for re-election this fall.

Love to the single girls,
