  • What do you do when standing in a LONG line?

    Aloha everbody! I went to Long's Pali last night to pick up medicine which could not be put off any later. Usually, I pick up my med's 12:00 am. - 2:00 am. No traffic, no problems finding parking, no lines. Once in awhile, I find myself having to go sooner and the line is long. I also can't stand any lines for anything (BI-Polar) when shopping or going to pay bills. Last month I started doing things to shorten the time in waiting. I started to sing and talk story to those in front and in the back of me. By the time I get to the front, I made new friends and made alot of people smiling. Today, once again I met and made new friends. What do you do when you're in a LONG line?

      Ditto.
      Unless it's absolutely and critically necessary, in which case I probably expected to have to wait and brought along a paperback to read.

      That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

          ok. I uhhh, actually take a book with me and try catch up on reading. Cuz my singing voice, well, no one goin heard dat all by itself; I mostly forget my ukulele, so no can sing widout accompanyment.
          Or I find myself spending time fending off the usual adulatory fawning of the crowd; "eh you da kine, eh!? saw you on TV. how you get da kine to do dat ting when you wen oah dat place you know when you sang dat song dat had da ...etc.etc." You know, i nevah unnastahnd what dey talking bout. And my autograph writing hand get carpal tunnel syndrome, so... azz why hahd, eh!?

                What do i do when.. Oh, funny you should ask. Ok, I'll try this one:

                I honk at the boneheaded punks taking their sweet time or cutting in ahead of me... There is not a day I do not dream about not standing in long lines while I am not singing with my ukulele that I did not remember to not bring.

                    Check my e-mail, catch up on a few newsfeeds, browse a couple of websites... from long lines to waiting rooms, smartphones have saved what little sanity geeks like me have left.

                          Oh, and about me being on tv. after singing all ova the naughty neighborhood...I got on cause i'm da madda of three soldiers, whose only son almost died in Iraq twice. Came back Home with sharpnel imbedded in his chest and still got deployed to Afganistan less than a year. I was pist that my Congressman didn't support the troops in the Middle East. Does that answer your question, KIMO?

                            (staying on topic, here...)

                            while waiting in long lines, I spend my time trying to remember if I ever posed any question in da first place.
