"Take a chance, you just might grow... Take a chance you stupid ho" (Gwen Stefani)

In her debut solo single (much maligned for sounding "exactly like a No Doubt track", but with a very funky Alice-inspired vid), Ms Gwen Stefani is squawking at me, "What You Waitin' For?" It is, frankly, starting to piss me off (not the song -- which is actually quite catchy :) -- but the question, which I've been askin' myself more and more of late). Well here it comes -- a list of things I'm "waitin'" for...


for a certain someone's approval

for someone else to make the first move

for the muse to strike

to have enough spare cash to get my car serviced

for Australians to get sick of John Howard

to hear whether I still have a job after Christmas

to have certainty
