Is there anything worse than waiting to hear back from someone? Whether it's the plumber, the doctor, the pharmacy, the kids.... Doesn't matter. It's always hard waiting for that letter, that email, the phone.
And waiting on submitted writing is even worse. But there's nothing you can do about it except forget it's out there and go do something else.
Like clean out the dryer. Or the dishwasher. Or start supper.
Yeah, sure. Ugh. I'd rather hang out on the computer.
