Stage fright of the Cowardly Clam

Well, I survived my first speaking engagement to a full room of expectant children and parents.  I was trembling when I took to the podium for the Award Ceremony of the first annual Chesapeake Bay Revival Coloring Contest and broke into a cold sweat, looking out to a sea of eyes.  I nearly fainted!  The children were just adorable and by the end, I felt much better.  It is difficult for an anti-social person to get in front of a group.  But I did it and didn't pass out .... YEAHHHHHH!
