Hurry up and wait

Sometimes I wonder how much of our lives we spend waiting…waiting in line at the grocery store, at the bank, at the drive-thru. Waiting in traffic. Waiting for return phone calls. Waiting for the movie, or the concert, or the play to start. Waiting on hold, all the while being assured that “your call is important to us.” Waiting in the doctor’s waiting room. Waiting for the bus, or the train, or the plane. Waiting for a seat at your favorite restaurant. Waiting for Godot. 🙂

I’ll bet if we totaled it all up, the number would be astounding.

(Ever write a word so many times that it starts to look foreign? Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait.)
