How Much I Wait

LaLa Love You
W#2
Yesterday I waited for three hours to learn some really fascinating psychology. It was not a painful waiting, but still.

When you wait for me, I feel like I've achieved something, or maybe just not lost that which I waited to get.
When *you* wait, is it for good or to avoid evil?

And I Waited To Do This, Too
W#1:
How excited I am that I got up from a three hour nap to do this. Start a blog about waiting, not really about procrastination - although the two are not fully separated.
________________________
I'm doing this because:
Because I wait all the time and it's completely normal. It's not driving me to the edge or making my life stand out from anyone else's. It's a fully integrated functionality of modern life, waiting.
Router's down. Train's late. Boss is busy. Don't have the training yet. Gotta get there. It's in the mail. The auction's almost over. It's recording right now, don't shake it.
Mostly because I'm curious about the normalcy of waiting for life, when once you've waited enough, it's over.

Reading this blog, look forward to:
-Posts about what I waited for on a given day
-Challenges and excitements on docmenting my and others' waiting
-New and creative methods of documenting waiting
-Some bitching about waiting
-Links to my webpage [and podcasts] on waiting
-Probably a waiting related manifesto, eventually
Thanks for waiting!
