Not so Patiently Waiting

We are still waiting to hear from Tony, our builder.    How long does it take to get a survey, print some blueprints, and get the building permits? Realistically, we could be waiting another two weeks.  I feel like a am a pre-teen girl waiting anxiously by the phone willing it to ring.  Seeing as it is the 2010s and I am a modern girl woman, I would so call Tony and put an end to this waiting game...if only I had his phone number (or last name to Google).
