expense reports : size does matter

it is amazing, if I have an expense report for a couple hundred bucks, that thing can languish on my "to do" list for weeks or month.  but the past two weeks racked up large 4 digit range of expenses and couldn't weight to that sucker turned in.

now comes the roullette game of "when do we get re-imbursed"?  My hope is prior to the 22nd when the Amex bill comes due...  EEK!
