You may have seen this person. She traverses along the streets of the city like the rest of us. What makes her different, however, is that she can read while walking. She relies on peripheral vision to get to her destination.
She is a busy New Yorker. Too busy to look where she's going. She hasn't got time to waste on minor details like watching for potholes, fellow commuters or traffic. She is a multi-tasker.
Boy, that must be a real engrossing book she is poring over. That is why she cannot tear herself away from it. But just like the rest of us, she has to rush to work as well. No time to sit on that empty bench over there to finish that one last chapter.
How educated you look as you fill your mind with knowledge. You must be so much smarter than the rest of us regular folk. That is clearly evident by how you are so into books.
If I had a cookie I would give it to you.
