Standing around is no fun. I noticed at a recent event that I attended how people were very impatient when it came to sitting around and waiting for something to happen. Everyone was happy and had someone close to them to talk to, but still they were restless. So I’m wondering how long do you sit around waiting for something to happen?

Maybe it depends on what you are waiting on.

I am the kind of person who can normally entertain myself, so it doesn’t bother me as much, but as the evening wore on, people started leaving. As I looked around more and more seats were empty and it was too bad, because the party was a lot of fun–once it took off. Does good things come to those who wait?

“I have noticed that the people who are late are often so much jollier than the people who have to wait for them.” ― E.V. Lucas

What kind of waiter are you? Do you relax and take the time to reflect on life or do you keep watching the door and tapping your fingers on the table?

How important is anticipation? The definition of waiting: The act of remaining inactive or stationary. 2. A period of time spent waiting. Idiom: inwaiting. In attendance, especially at a royal court. My brother always kidded his wife about the song “Waiting on a Woman”. He died 4 years ago this April and I know he’s “Waiting on a Woman”.

As a writer and as a reader, I know the importance of not waiting too long, but not revealing too much too soon. What do you think, is waiting a Thumbs Up or a Thumbs Down for you?
