Oh for god's sake. Woman sitting next to me is having a rather emotional phone conversation. I can't make out the context, but "What the hell did I ever do?…never seen anyone this shallow before…am I really like that? Huh?" is about what's been said for the past 5 minutes.
As long as the sniffling remains just that, I'm sure my earphones will suffice.
As sure as I was that there'd be an empty seat next to me.
