Tick Tock

I’ve always had trouble with time. No, I’m not always late – well, sometimes, but not on a regular basis. What I mean is that time seems to just fly by me. Even when I start the day early, darkness comes too soon. What’s that all about? And I always catch myself asking the same question over and over when a friend wants to meet or when there’s a business meeting to attend to – “What time?”

What time should I be ready?
What time do we start tomorrow?
What time do we end?
What time?

I want to believe I’m not the only one with this disease. I’m not the only one afflicted with this obsession with time. Well, come to think of it, I’ve always liked Piper’s power of freezing time. And immortality really fascinates me.

Time, oh time. It’s one commodity I don’t ever want to be without. How do I keep time? I don’t know. Give me time to think about it.
