Mine's a dead recipe blog from 2006. Still loads weirdly.

That $40 per proof comment hit home, used to defend the wait but now I get why clients want instant.

Man, I really felt that part about "lost my train of thought completely." That's the worst feeling because you're just standing there while your brain goes totally blank and everyone's staring at you. I've had a similar moment where I was supposed to walk a big group through a new setup and I just froze on the second slide, no joke. The fact that you went back and asked for feedback right away tells me you're not the problem, the demo just went sideways. Stick with it, rebuild that routine, and let this be the story you tell later about how you bounced back, not the reason you left.
