April 26 2011
Lillian H. Smith Library

It's a rainy day and I am off to meet P in a few hours, I decided to come to the library. I am sitting in the Chinese area with a bunch of old men reading Chinese newspapers around me. I will learn Mandarin one day. Another man has come up with a red and black knit sweater and sat beside me staring. I try to ignore him but this is just getting awkward. I turn around to face him and he asked if I know what the cables/plugs he is holding are. Is one an adapter? Does this one go into a TV? He found the laptop and cables in the trash and put it together himself. He is bald too. I saw I don't really know much about computers, and PC's anymore. He figured I did because I had a Mac. I told him to check online. He proceeded to ask someone else. There is a man burping in the other bookshelf. He think he is hiding from everyone but we can all still hear him. Ah, one of the old men at my table has just gotten up and is reading his newspaper standing up, he doesn't want to sit anymore. This is my first live post here, it's exciting.


UPDATE: The man proceeded to ask the other boy about his computer and it made a lot of strange sounds, after awhile he left to go to the bathroom or whatever. And it's been 3 hours since he has left his laptop there. Even when I was leaving no sign of him. There is a man snoring right beside it. And a man in an amazing Western outfit sitting beside me.
