I dislike making speeches. I always try to go about them the right way, making notes ahead of time, rehearsing and so on. But when it is time to stand up, the things which made sense a few days earlier make me cringe, so I always end up winging it.
Other than that I don't have too much sympathy for you. At one point in my life I was writing over 30 articles a month for different newspapers and magazines. If I had been a journalist reporting the news, that might have been okay, but this was all feature material and commentary. Do that for a while and you really do start wondering what the heck to say next...
