so i was standing there watching the clock on the oven count down to zero. i was pretty hungry and i had passed most of the cooking time with pointless things because i knew there was no sense in hoping or trying to get the potato skins any sooner. but as i stood there and watched the clock pass by 30 and count down through 20...10...i wondered if i was wasting those 20 seconds of life by waiting. it sure felt like i was at the time. but it allowed me to get to eat the snack sooner by doing so with the least amount of stress and effort. and the cooking time was definitely worth it after i started eating. is this a life lesson?
