Default The longest two minutes of my life

Waiting for somebody's two minute noodles to heat up in the microwave so I could reheat my cup of tea. Should have just made another one really.

Yesterday I cooked some rice for lunch ... 1.5 minutes it took ... I thought it was taking forever.

Waiting for the bus this morning ... waited 10 minutes ... it felt like I'd been standing there for a couple of hours.

Do you find that time slows down wickedly when you're waiting for something?

I can be sitting at my desk working on something and an hour goes by without my realising it ... but I get all antsy and annoyed by waiting 1.5 minutes for the microwave!

Am I just crazy?

Nope, I get that all the time.
It'll be crawling along, slow as anything... it'll be one pm and I'll go hide out in my office doing some paperwork - and before I know it it's 3.50 pm and almost home-time.

I hate waiting too, but for me its more wasting time that I hate... like the hour and a half of my life lost every time I take a bus home...
...or the wait for 20 minutes in a queue... ...or on the phone.....aaargh!!!
