I woke up at 8 AM and got home at 6 PM. The broadcast was twenty minutes away when I saved my Avid project for the last time and transcoded it into the system. Sometimes schedules such as this mean that the subject’s been really hard. Sometimes it just means that the reporter hasn’t had a clue.

The whole thing was a bit of a shapeless blob. So Tekevä Foundation was five years old, but then what? The interviews weren’t difficult to get but the interviewees were. What’s more, I had to version a short comment for the 16.30 radio news, which meant putting off work on the television story.

So yes, it was pure SNAFU. But here I am alive and well, and a second dance mat just arrived. Life is good, after all.
