Day 16 ...

As we come to the end of another (work) week without a post from TBEHBWF, I think it's important to reflect on other things we may have been forced to wait for in the past ... this way, we can remember that though waiting may be tough sometimes, it just makes the experience that much sweeter.

Here are some things I remember having a hard time waiting for:
  • Christmas morning - falling asleep the night before was almost impossible, but my parents always told me, "If you don't go to sleep, Santa won't come!"
  • My birthday, when I was younger - I remember climbing back into bed one year because I thought since it was my birthday that meant I didn't have to go to school. Much to my chagrin, my Mother didn't buy it (though I still take off of work on my Birthday to this day).
  • Opening day - no baseball for months on end, all the positive stories coming out of Spring Training ... in middle school, they'd put the game on a TV in the hallway and let us watch for a few minutes during class.
  • Nick to show up at wing night - it's tough, because he usually has to work late, and there's always the chance he'll get stuck at work and not be able to make it at all!
  • Lil' Poopie to stop referencing that class he took - I'm actually still waiting for this ...

What are some things that you've had a hard time waiting for in the past?
