Woe

Headphones are at work, so I have to be aware of my surroundings today. Boo. And there are a few new good podcasts available today I wanted to hear.

The gal next to me is doing homework, and as she writes with her pen, her elbow slowly digs into my ribs, then releases to the next line. She is a human typewriter and just now realized it and apologized. 

Across from me is a hipster wearing skinny jeans, a caramel-colored disco-era jacket, and foppish blonde bangs hanging in his eyes. He seems to have a malfunctioning tablet of sorts. Every few moments he flips shut the case and thwaps it a few times with his palm. With my headphones I wouldn't notice, but in this case it is heartily annoying. I may offer to fix it for him permanently.
