...where, for reasons that had nothing to do with me, someone in my office put me on the spot to interpret in a high stakes situation with zero prep.
I nailed it, as it happens. But I was shaking so hard I literally almost fell out of my heels (work dress code) — not from fear but from the adrenaline spike.

@sindarina That was from a great time in my life when I was putting a lot of miles on the "International" part of International Woman of Mystery.
I had a closet full of suits and little black dresses and if you were lucky you could glimpse me in dark corners at various embassy parties.
I truly miss those days. (And that wardrobe!)
