ON MY MIND: IT’S SO HARD

I AM THE WORLD’S WORST WAITER.
Really. I think I was born without the patience gene.
Waiting. Makes. Me. Bonkers.

To mitigate the insanity (and to drown out KFKD, which has been playing in stereo in my head now for days — like a bad Bee Gees marathon), I’ve plugged in the iPod, slammed on the noise-proof earphones (that Mr. Bose is a miracle worker), and have put the Dixie Chicks on repeat.

Ms. Natalie captures my current mood (insert emoticon here) when she sings:

And sometimes I don’t have the energy
To prove everybody wrong
And I try my best to be strong
But you know it’s so hard
It’s so hard

It’s so hard when it doesn’t come easy
It’s so hard when it doesn’t come fast
It’s so hard when it doesn’t come easy
It’s so hard

Yesssssssssss. But at least today the waiting room music is nice.
