If only she knew that I was quite serious about that statement, but since we were all for acting up, then let's be great actors. "I also want to say thank you to everyone I work with, my secretary Louisa is supposed to be here, so if you are, I appreciate it." So many of the guests turned their heads to search for her but I continued the speech. "Tonight was supposed to be a special one than it already is, but I believe in slow and steady winning the race.
