Anxious for the arrival

Everyone knows that feeling in which you know an imminent action will occur and it is only a matter of time. It could be that work meeting, that bonus, or that talk with a lover. It is almost sickening how it can sit in your belly, make you nervous so you can't eat, and repeatedly run through different scenarios to almost the point of insanity. You are hoping for a best case scenario but realistically you know that the outcome will be disappointing. It is funny when you are facing this feeling when at work.

Makes me think of Big Audio Dynamite "Just Can't Wait". The live version on The Globe is good. I listened to it twice this AM and decided that it did deservedly have a place in my list of favorite songs.

"It`s called Can`t Wait"
What you doin` to me
You`re messin` with my brain

What you doin` to me
I`m stuck in purple rain

And I just can`t wait
Any longer
I`ve got to leave today

Please believe meI was well on my way
Yeah believe me
We thought that we would play

And I just can`t wait
Any longer
I`ve got to leave today

Don`t fall for me
Don`t wanna sail away
Don`t you wait for me
Just let it slip away

And I just can`t wait

I also had to make sure I could post with out having to put a Calvin and Hobbes cartoon up.
