just minutes before you leave for a job interview.
1. you still know how to tie a tie. (going with the muted yellow bill blass with the smallish navy box-shapes in a grid pattern.)
2. you’ve been awake for over an hour and nobody else in the house is anywhere close to stirring, waking or otherwise moving.
3. for all the friends you have, you know none of their addresses. phone numbers and email addresses, sure, but postal-wise you are out of luck. (reason for pondering: what if they ask for personal references? email is great, but probably still not smiled upon by any human resources department.)
4. the shoes you want to wear are AWOL, so you are going to have to go with the second stringers that have a wearing lifespan of about three hours before they become intolerable.
too late to turn back now. going. gone.
