And you know what?

I have to be honest with you.

I'm glad we're doing this in a minute or less, because I don't have much time right now.

I'm really feeling rushed.

I'm feeling strapped for time.

I have so much to get done today if you're strapped for something and that means you lack it.

What else could you be strapped for?

Well, let's see.

You could be strapped for cash.

Hey, I love to travel with you this weekend, but I'm strapped for cash.

I really shouldn't.

I used this phrase today in an email.

I said I would love to take on this project, but I'm really time strapped right now, so it's not possible.

Time strapped, strapped for time, do not have the time.

The opposite is to have plenty of something.

You have plenty of time.

No, I don't.

I'm totally strapped for time these days.

If you're ever strapped for time, don't worry.

There's still time to learn English with your minute or less English lessons.
