    Ha. My experience with doctors has been mostly bad. Too many of them are old and seem they've given up on their profession and don't take time with patients. Today it was actually an assistant. She was young and bubbly and seemed to actually care.

    I don't think your immune system is just standing in line.

    I'm waiting for my man to call for a ride home.

    I'm waiting for my article to come in the mail, should be soon.

    I'm waiting for my sister's daughter to be born. I'm knitting her a blanket.

    This thread makes me think of Arcade Fire's song We Used to Wait. You should check it out.

    my check next month, to either save to fix my 3d printer, or spend more on my train stuff.

    lets see what else? i'm waiting for my eyes and mind to get tired enough to go back to sleep, to wait for the stores to open tomarrow to replenish my grocery supplies.

    i'm waiting for near sunrise to put the wheelie bin out by the curb. this being a thursday night and friday being trash day on my street.

    there are a lot more things i'm not waiting for, and a lot more things not affected by these things that i am.

    there's some train stuff i have on order, that i'm not really expecting it just yet.

    then there's my subscription to analog-sf, now that they've gone back to a monthly format.

    Well, my plan is to get associates in environmental science through the community college, which is a university transfer program that will enable me to get a bachelors, in what I hope to be some substratum of botany. I was not sure how to go about doing this, because everything seems so general and the biology specifics that appealed to me all have course prerequisites in mathematics far beyond my present capabilities. So I looked online through botanist friends of friends resumes, and almost all of them followed this path; that is, associates in environmental science, and then moved on to major in a specific like paleobotany, cell biology, ethnobotany &c so that is what I'm trying to emulate. The environmental science as program at this school begin with intermediate algebra, so I am set to take the placement testing and will almost certainly have to complete remedial courses, but the math doesn't begin until the second semester, so perhaps I will be able to catch up in the first. Ideally, I'd ultimately like to have a future in relation to the federal medicinal plants institutions, and possibly the discipline of taxonomy, and I've long wanted to learn Latin. Anyway, this is my dream Janja, and it's been something I've gone back and forth on internally for a decade. I believe that I am finally ready, so it's in motion now.

    That's nice. It seems like the right choice for you.
    And I love Latin! Seriously, I really enjoyed learning it.
