Grrrrr !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have you ever waited for a phone call that never came? Looked for mail that wasn't delivered? Stood by the window, waiting for a guest that never arrives. Don't you hate that feeling? I just hate it!
It seems to be happening to me a lot lately. Be a friend who doesn't call as promised, a check that is not sent, or a visitor that doesn't show.
What I hate most about it is that, 9 times out of ten, you know better. You know you shouldn't wait. But there you are, ringing your hands, biting your lip, holding your breath, checking your watch, getting your hopes up. It's like touching the oven even though you know it is hot, but damn if those cookies don't smell great!
Almost as bad, is if the call, mail, or guest does come, it is less than hoped for. The friend only wants to say a quick hello, complain and hang up. The mail is only a portion of what you were hoping for. The guest arrives late, is tired, and has to leave early.
I am guilty of committing these heart retching crimes too. But I have become much more aware of it, and have improved on it lately. Just ask Nicole and TJ.
My question is this, who should we be more upset with, the criminal, or the one aiding and abetting the crime?
