| What are you still doing here, Lauren? |
| Aren't you supposed to be at the trade show in Chicago? |
| I am! |
| I had to cancel the trip last minute, |
| as several of the key speakers came down with the flu. |
| They rescheduled the event to the same time next month. |
| How annoying to have to rearrange your appointments. |
| I know it already took a lot of planning for you to be able to take off this week. |
| Yeah, I was very disappointed when I found out. |
| I'm not going to be able to go next month, |
| it is just too close to the holidays, which is the busiest time of year for accounting. |
| I understand. |
| Hopefully, a similar show will be on in the new year! |
