Dreamt I ran into a friend I haven’t seen in, oh, 13 or 14 years? he smiled as he rammed into my shins with his wheelchair.

The static electricity between the leaves of a trade paperback.

A young woman needed to charge her phone at an outlet by a table where a man was seated with a notebook, then she sat on the floor.

Overhearing two students sitting nearby at the food court:
— It’s convenient to leave your coat there, but what if you spill on it?
— I never spill.
— Yesterday you spilled chicken noodle soup.
— Not on me, though.
