colour me bad

there is no greater pleasure on earth then getting something you really, really want after working so hard for it or waiting a long time for that particular thing/event to arrive,

this includes eating some saltine crackers and mushroom soup after a terribly long and tedious recovery period from fever,

should definitely include the times when you were so bogged dowwn by work that you had no time to appease the hunger and when you finally sat down for a meal, it would be a perfect one no matter what,

hearing from the long awaited call from a loved one, a real loved one, not just someone conjured up by the imaginations of the mind,

the list goes on, of course,

but the items on it tell the same story,

if something is worth the wait, that it is worth your while waiting for it,  ¶ 8:12 pm
