@riosvalentinax: i really was just trying to keep things professional while moderating the 2026 district spelling bee this afternoon. walking across the wooden stage in my black mini skirt and heels with the mic, i was completely ready to read out the next round of words. then i stepped up to the next contestant at his mic stand and everything kind of paused. the poor guy completely blanked. i am pretty sure he forgot every single letter in the alphabet the second i stopped in front of him. he just froze up and totally lost focus on the spelling part...
