Not bloody hardly, but I did enjoy seeing all the lights, cameras and action of the Saturn commercial. Actually, there was only one camera and lots of really bright lights. I decided to go totally Hippie, so I got draped in my silk peasant blouse and straightened my hair. Of course, I had my trademark Goth eyes and buffed up collar, so I am sure they didn't know what to think at first; however, the two guys doing this were from New Orleans, so I bet they see a lot of my ilk in their hometown. whaaaahey!
There were two ladies ahead of me. The first chick lived up to her hair colour by totally bombing on almost every line. She was up there for about 30 minutes. Then the next chick went up and did her thing, taking about 15 minutes. I was next and, needless to say, a tad nervous. The dude put the microphone on me, asked me some questions about my wreck and why I returned to Saturn for another car, and the service center. I was up there for about 15 minutes and only screwed up once, basically because my mouth went dry. When the bright lights are glaring on you, you have a camera pointed at you, and you're asked to improv when you have absolutely no experience, "stressed" doesn't even begin to cover your emotional state. No wonder the blonde chick spazzed.
All in all, it was a great experience. I got to see the blood and bones of soon-to-be-flashy commercials and I will also get a copy of the the commercial and a free oil change. Yay me!
