The other day I asked an employee why was she so late for work . She just looked at me with a fretful
look on her face. “I don’t know,” she said. “I left home on time, I just did my
usual stuff and now I am here.” “I must have been in a time warp”. (No drugs were involved.)
I guess I had to believe
her because she looked sincere about it. Actually, she looked dazed and
confused. She walked out the room mumbling something about it should only take
me 20 min. Where did the time go?
I too have been a victim of that very same time warp. It has
happened more times than I would like to admit. I will tell the C.O. (chief
organizer aka my hubby.) I will be back in about an hour. Two hours later, I am
still out doing my stuff. Although, he has learned over the years that YES I do
know my way home, YES I will get there eventually and NO do not ask me any details (cause I don’t
remember)( No drugs were involved) Traffic was slow, I had to stop and talk to
someone, the line at the gas station was long. It mystifies me! Maybe it’s
because I am juggling work, home and everything else all the time.
I wonder when this time warp grabs us. Is it when we pull out
of the driveway? Is there an invisible bubble that we drive into? I wonder what
we do in this time warp. Do aliens grab us, probe our minds and then erase our
memories.
So remember, you have to make good use of your time. Because
you never know when those time warp aliens are going to snatch you up and waste
your time.
