I was con tem platin g jo in in g a local professional association and decided it would be a good idea to attend their free introductory m eeting So I planned to go after work, m eet the officers and introduce m yself to a few m em bers

On the evening the m eeting was scheduled, I happened to have had a very long day at work I had not had a chance to eat lunch and could feel my blood sugar dropping Since this m akes me light-headed and a bit grumpy, I decided I had better stop at hom e and get a quick snack to hold me over, before I w ent to this meeting After all, you never get a second chance to make a first im pression, right?

T h at night, tra ffic w as backed up, and it took m e lon ger than usual to get home I d ecided th a t all I had tim e to do w as to run in to the house, get tw : apples, a few cra ck ers and a bottle o f w ater and then hurry on to th is m eetir.r

I put th em all into in m y large purse, and ran back outside to get in the car Fortunately, the traffic had cleared up I sped up dow ntow n and made it to the

m eetin g on tim e, w ith ou t eatin g anything “G rea t” I thought, “E v eryth in g is

going perfectly” I w ent inside and all the new com ers w ere invited to sit at a round table and introduce them selves before the m eeting started It was very crowded, and I did not really have room to put my purse on the floor or on m y chair, so I put

it on the table in front o f m e and settled down to listen to the speaker

A fter the m eeting, I did w hat I had intended to do I introduced m y se lf to the officers o f this club and m et a few other m em bers W hen I was speaking I noticed that everybody was lookin g at m e strangely and sm iled T h e w orst thing hap­pened w hen I stood up all things in my purse dropped out!
