WAITING

I AM WAITING TO GO TO THE THEATER, EVERYMAN THEATHER. I HATE GOING OUT IN THE EVENING. I WOULD RATHER COME HOME FROM WORK, PLAY THE PIANO AND THEN GO UPSTAIRS, TURN ON THE TV, TAKE OFF MY CLOTHS AND GET IN BED WITH AN ADULT BEVERAGE, SOME NUTS AND CHIPS UNTIL I FALL ASLEEP. I NORALLY WAKE UP IN TIME TO SEE THE MIDNIGHT BROADCAST OF THE MASS AND THEN I GO BACK TO SLEEP UNTIL FIVE IN THE MORNING. UP AND OUT IN AN HOUR. FORTY-FIVE MINUTE SWIM AT THE Y AND THEN MY DAY ENDS. AT WORK BY 7:45. AND NOW THE EIGHT HOUR WAIT UNTIL IT IS TIME TO GO HOME.
