I have to be on campus tomorrow (Saturday) morning for a presentation; won’t take very long, but it’s an obligation, y’know?  So I’m getting ready for that, making sure I have the handouts I’ll need for the students, a copy of the presentation that I’m giving, the computer hardware and all that…

I set a list out on my desk and grab a handful of business cards to toss in the box, too.  I’m getting low on the ones in my tray on the desk, so I open the credenza behind me to pull some more out of the stash.

Shit.

I am very low on business cards.

…

I didn’t intend to stay here long enough to NEED a second box of business cards.

Time really flies.  And the more time that passes, the faster it goes.  Better go put in an order.
