The crowd applauded politely as I walked out, as I tried to calm the butterflies in my stomach.
I approached the lecturn and took a deep breath before my lunch tried to escape my lips.
I paused, pretending to cough as I held down the vomit trying to escape my system, then I took hold of the glass of water there on the stand and drank it down in one long gulp.
I replaced the glass carefully, and then looked out at the crowd, and forced myself to speak.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Doctor Scott Basti!"
I gestured to the wings.
