NYPL &mdash New York Public Lavatory
So I am sitting right now in the Muhlenberg Branch of the New York Public Library. I went to the wrong one as this branch offers no wireless. No surprise, however, that I can still pick up a stray signal from some generous or misguided setup.
You get, however, what you pay for. Besides the pungent smell of urine emanating hopefully, yet probably not exclusively, from the toilets, there is a mix of other bodily odours drifting from the motley clientele. This branch seems to attract, besides myself, a significant proportion of seemingly vagrant types.
The two gentlemen at my sides and another one a short distance away are all sleeping. The student girl also just fell asleep. Maybe it’s time for a nap. Or better yet, a trip to the café.
