So my mobile phone rings yesterday afternoon, from a restricted number, as I’m walking through CVS to pick up more Ibuprofen for my broken rib.

Did Fox News today - Got a call as my plane was landing in Chicago. 40 minutes later, I was at Fox’s Chicago studio, being put into makeup. (which I forgot to wipe off, which made my client burst into hysterics when she saw me.)
Piece was on Aquafina having to put verbage on their bottles […]
