Tuned out

The guys were talking college sports when I went downstairs for lunch at work today. I wanted to read my book, so I only added a couple comments. As the last one was heading upstairs, he commented,"Here we've been disturbing you when all you were trying to do was read your book."

I looked up at him and joked, "My boyfriend works in sports radio, I'm very practiced at tuning out sports talk that doesn't interest me."
