Disadvantages to working at home.... #1

Back in TO early this eve.

Immediately began doing post-vacation laundry, fired off a few quickie emails and hopped in the shower (hanging out with smokers and animals during hayfever season = boo).

Was rinsing my very nice Biolage light conditioner out of my hair when Chris popped his head in the bathroom saying, "Hon... There's a publicist on the phone. Can you take a call in the shower?" Naturally, the cordless phone was in his hand while he was talking.

I exhaled loudly. Hopped out of the shower, hastily wrapped myself in a towel, and took the damned important phone call. It was just to confirm the street date for an article I was working on. I could almost hear the smirk in the publicist's voice when he said, "Sorry I interrupted your shower."

The smartass signed off an email a short while ago with "Now go dry off." I suspect I'll forever be known as The Writer In The Shower.

I need a secretary.
