Haha, waiting sucks, I know!! I wanted snakes when I was a sophomore in high school but my mother was absolutely against it ("No animals in cages!" ). Even after I graduated I had to wait a year, and finally gave in when my boyfriend at the time said he'd let me keep them at his house. Even now with 1.2 BPs and a little pine snake (we're all under the same roof now) I'm itching to get more, but my current man and I have to get into our own house first so we'll have room. It is -so- hard, but absolutely worth it. I've already broken my no more animals rule and setting up arrangements to get an Egyptian uromastyx once we're out, and then I've got my wishlist of tarantulas to start on....

Don't worry, you aren't the only one frustrated with waiting, and while it isn't easy it's usually the best for both you and the animals
