While stuck in the waiting room at the doctor’s office, I don’t want to engage in conversation with anyone else if I don’t know them, so I’ll play Solitaire with the music turned off.
Ahh, to go back to the old days, when we all sat in the same room and just stared at each other for an hour or more. Sporadic, stilted small talk made it seem uncomfortably longer. And the joy of reading five year old magazines torn to shreds by toddlers and grub adults that act like toddlers.
