I waited, like my father, for the slipup, the flat joke.
And I waited like a jilted lover for one of the three wall-mounted phones to ring.
The days when I waited like a terrier for the programme to drop through the letterbox are long gone.
I waited like a slightly awkward and under-prepared mega-fan until she finally walked quickly past, I said I thought she was really good and she looked at me with a wholly appropriate death stare and said "thanks".

My mother would do my pleading for me when I was a kid, and she and I waited, like members of some guerrilla force, to ambush my father when he was "in a good mood".
And, like Jacob, I wait lovingly for my own Rachel.
I'd prefer to wait, like we did with Alan [Connell], for the quality that we need".
Now we expect a native Google Maps app, and there's no reason to wait, like I had previously suggested.
