I Can't Wait..... Literally

I think there are a few different kind of patience. There's the kind of patience you show by sitting through a boring class. There's the kind you use when someone asks you a million questions in a row. These types of patience are obviously beneficial to mankind. It allows us to be productive and not kill each other so much. But then there's another kind of patience: the patience demanded of us to wait until December 25th to open our Christmas presents. I don't like this kind of patience.
My mom used to wrap my Christmas presents in multiple layers with notes on each layer which read "I know today isn't Christmas! STOP UNWRAPPING THIS PRESENT!" She knew me well.
Jill, my wife, and I are going to have a baby in September. The ultrasound where we can find out whether it's a boy or a girl is coming up in a few weeks. We always told each other that we weren't going to find out what it was. We wanted to be surprised....
I don't think i'm gonna make it another six months.
To make it worse, i'm taking a child development class right now. It's enough to feed my anxiety for the rest of the week.
