I don&#8217;t know who it was or specifically what they were talking about, but it made me pause for a second and think about it.  Where is the juice coming from?  Where is it going?  Is this in relation to a building system, or some tiny electrical component?  After a couple of seconds I snapped out of it, but it made me wonder how many of these bits of conversation I hear in a day, and then promptly, after a second or two of consideration, flush out of my short term memory.<\/p>\n<p>This will be a record of those bits that I hear today, I&#8217;ll add them to the post as they occur.  If there are no more, or if I find all the rest of them to be terribly boring, this post is done.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Kids are going to fall off the swingset, and when they do you need to ignore them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>[edit] So what I learned yesterday is that I tune most people out.  Even when I&#8217;m trying to pay more attention to them, I spend most of my time in my own head &#8211; planning, replaying songs, conversing with myself, daydreaming about ruling the Earth, whatever.  It&#8217;s a little disconcerting to notice my constant internal dialouge so much, so I&#8217;m reverting back to my pre-self-aware state as of now&#8230;  Ahh, that&#8217;s better.
