It's like when you really, really have to pee but you're in a meeting that you can't duck out from so you're stuck at the big table with all the head honchos staring at some powerpoint presentation that you could have just read perfectly well on your own at your desk in private but you know you can't leave even though you're getting all squidgy in your seat and wiggling your feet under the table because you're trying not to openly fidget too much so everyone notices your problem but you just can't concentrate on the suddenly trivial task at hand because everything else is suspended in anticipation.
