What to do when you're waiting for something

Last night I was waiting for something, quite impatiently. So instead of continuing to kill time waiting for it, I did stuff.

• I cleaned my "area".
  
• I wrote 4 thank you notes.
  
• I edited a client's blog post.
  
• I went to bed.
  

Now it's the next day and I'm still waiting. Even though I've been checking every 15 minutes to make sure I didn't miss it, I'm using the time in between nicely.

• I cooked breakfast.
  
• I wrote a blog post.
  
• Then I wrote this one.
  

I suspect if it isn't here by the end of the day, I will have crossed off everything on my to-do list. Just don't tell me the score from Monday Night Football.
