I still hate waiting
Yesterday my emotions were all in a tangle. Finally, I made a list of specific things that were bugging me at the same time. Each of them was a thing of which I either didn’t know the status, or a things for which I just had to wait. For example, one is the date at which the judges would announce if my play would be a part of the final group to be considered. I know what that date is, but waiting for it to arrive requires significant treading of water. The impact of all of these things was quite daunting. It will have been six weeks of treading water if they don’t put if off yet again. I’ll just have to keep treading.
