Prose No. Three

There are too many times that I am restless.

Waiting for the coffee to brew, fingers tapping the countertop with impatience.

I worry that I will get trapped in these moments - repeat them a thousand times over.

Waiting for the coffee, waiting for the light to turn red, waiting for a phone call, waiting for my pink fingernail polish to dry, waiting in line at the supermarket, waiting.

When what I really want is to be doing.

Note to self: Do not wait too long to do.
