person A: A week before my cruise this summer_comma_ I was counting down the days with bated breath. I thought I would actually DIE before I got to go on it.
person B: It's the worst waiting for vacations! You want the time before to go fast but then it to go slow during. Never works out that way_comma_ unfortunately.
person A: Yes! Completely the opposite of what you want. The universe can be funny like that. But I had an absolute blast!
person B: That's great! I'm glad you had a good time. I've never been on a cruise before but it sounds like I need to try one out!
