It is a little after noon on tuesday as I sit quietly in the MSU library where there are way more people then usual using the computers. I try my best to focus on the many important things I must do while I wait for Merrilee and Sterling to get out of class--arg! my stupid farmer keeps getting stuck behind the gigantic turkey! Anywho, I diligently plow the rest of my fields when I absent-mindedly glance up from the computer and directly lock eyes with a squatty, upper-twenties-ish guy who is seriously glaring --at me! I quickly disengage optical contact and try to resume my tasks while reassuring myself that he wasn't glaring at me but in my general direction. Time passes on and I am still waiting for Ster and Merr. I guess I must non-chalantly glance around the room a lot because as I attempted to perform that feat once again, I noticed a pair of dull eyes looking at me, over the top of a computer screen across the way. Instead of me being the one to confusedly glance away, the awkward pair of peepers ashamedly looked down at his key board. Ah ha!! Caught!! Should I feel flattered? Should I suspect some kind of scoundrely motive? Or, perhaps, I am just a victim of random acts of zoning-out?
Then I thought that I might have un-knowingly sat down at the computer he was using but had just walked away for a moment. I glance down at the toolbar and see a random document still there from the previous student. Oh, well. I guess I will never know. He took off a half-hour ago, never to return into this reality show I call life.
