I don't mind speaking in front of a group, either, although the build-up to it isn't particularly pleasant! But once I'm talking, I'm fine. Not so when meeting a new person, though. I stay tongue-tied until the second meeting!

Happens to me every Sunday as I walk into the first set of doors at church. I'm sure some science person out there can expain it.<br />Anyway, my problem is the opposite of yours. Giving speeches or presentations, being the center of attention before more than a few people, is not comfortable, until I really get into it. Meeting new people...usually not a problem. We problably envy each other.<br />The curler, flat iron, etc. story...easy to visualize...have had similar experiences. LOL<br />Keep your dream and aspirations going, and try to enjoy the process, too, as I was advised once. Some day, I'll be saying, "Oh, I remember her...she used to have this blog that..." :)Anitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08180243708565855383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487444177236422658.post-56221642827613362152009-10-23T07:52:38.213-07:002009-10-23T07:52:38.213-07:00I believe you'll get there!
