Random Commuter Observations

The Metro was pretty packed coming in this morning. As I stood squashed against one of the walls, I had to hold my book pretty close to my face. Unfortunately, I discovered that I couldn't focus enough to read it.

I've been horribly nearsighted since about third grade. It seems somehow unfair that I should also be developing a problem with farsightedness.

Grr.

And the first one of you smartasses to mention bifocals gets a llama spitting.

Just think about how much nicer everything must look without all those sharp corners. Nice and soft, like an Impressionist painting. You're just taking art appreciation to the next level.

Bifocals are soooooooo last century.

I hear most old folks, hopped up on technology and trying to reclaim their youth, are actually opting for Audio Books now a days.

Isn't there a nice young volunteer at the senior center who can read to you?

God, I thought of an insult that's so depraved, I'm actually stopping myself from typing it. Literally exercising rhetorical self-control.

Thank me, Llamas.
