by Blair Brandsma How bad can it be, waiting? They say it’s only going to be (maybe) a month, and then the pandemic will be over. So, if I just sit here and look out my window at the few cars going by, (where are theose cars going?) and patiently wait, it will be over before I know it. A month isn’t so long. I should just break it down into smaller, more manageable numbers. Only thirty days. Take it one day at a time. So, if I just sit here and look out my window (nothing is open, no businesses, no schools, so where could those cars be going?) and patiently wait, for a whole lot of single days, it will be over before I know it. After all, a day is only twenty-four hours, so, if I just sit here and look out my window (those cars must be going somewhere— why didn’t I hear about it? whatever it was) and patiently wait, for a bunch of single hours, it will be over before I know it. After all, an hour is only sixty minutes, so, if I just sit here and look out my window (even work trucks are going by— are people redoing their bathrooms— maybe I should call a plumber— have my bathroom redone) and patiently wait, for a bunch of single minutes, it will be over before I know it. After all, a minute is only sixty seconds, so, if I just sit here and look out my window (even more cars now—like a parade am I missing out?) for a bunch of single seconds, it will be over before I know it. Does a minute actually take this long? Is my watch broken? Copyright 2021. All rights reserved.
