I sent out a press release today announcing my pregnancy to the newsroom:
From: Ellie McAllister
To: Newsroom
Subj: McAllister expansion
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Features reporter Ellie McAllister announced today that she is embarking on a new venture of personal expansion and growth. Accompanying her on this developing project is her husband, Chip, and a silent partner who is working closely with the couple to make the aforementioned possible.
In other words, guys… I’m pregnant!
Throughout the day, as each of the reporters arrived for work or returned from an interview, the clack of the keyboards and hum of the computers were punctuated with gasps and, from the desks of Jamie and Cal, squeals. I loved getting all of the e-mail replies, with the exception of one.
“I hope you get your addiction under control before the baby arrives. —Penelope.”
