[Tax-chick]

I’ll have reading material ... not to mention family and friends. I’m perfectly happy to stare into space and do nothing for minutes at a time, too - until I’m interrupted by, “You have to take me to the bathroom!”

Rest assured; it changes.

First it becomes; “You have to take me to the mall!”

Then it becomes; “You have to take me to my boy(girl)friend's!”

I’m perfectly happy to stare into space

Be sure of the space wherein you stare. I have a bad habit of doing that, mentally completely disconnected from anything in field of vision while I think on other things, and it has in the past caused me grief when folks think I am staring at them. (If they move and see that my eyes don't track, they may understand: I'm not looking, I'm not registering.)
