My Passing Conversations

When going two or three hours with minimal social contact yet surrounded by people, you slowly tune in to passing conversations. Or, maybe some people have no idea how loud they talk while walking by other people. Just a suggestion, although not always the case.

My morning can end up sounding something like this:

"I just felt rushed I - tore the right ankle and left calf he - I guess if we use the reading in - you know what - there's one round the Chancery, which is just huge! [this is my favourite, most definitely] - where are you going it - beyond that not"

The guy remarking about the "huge" one was, I think, talking about either a mushroom or an insect - or whatever else spends its free time clinging to the bottom of tree trunks.
