Do you remember that from "Oh, the Places You'll Go" by Dr. Seuss?
The Waiting Place
...for people just waiting.
Waiting for a train to go or a bus to come, or a plane to go or the mail to come, or the rain to go or the phone to ring, or the snow to snow or waiting around for a Yes or a No or waiting for their hair to grow.
Everyone is just waiting.
Waiting for the fish to bite or waiting for wind to fly a kite or waiting around for Friday night or waiting, perhaps, for their Uncle Jake or a pot to boil, or a Better Break or a string of pearls, or a pair of pants or a wig with curls, or Another Chance.
Everyone is just waiting.
I have to wait 3 weeks for a test to find out what's wrong with my body. Don't worry, I had the ct scan a few days ago and haven't heard back yet so it's not cancer. :) I've had blood in my urine (and pain!!) for a few months so they're just running all the tests for that. But the waiting sucks. Can we just be done already?
