Why I should never lie...
(while observing a 10th grade classroom)
Student (in front of me, turns around): You a student?
Me (roll my eyes): Nope, just observing.
Student: Oh.
5 minutes later...
Student: Are you married?
Me: Yes.
Student: Oh. To who?
Me: You think you'd know him?
Student: Yeah.
Me: No, you wouldn't. I'm not from here. I'm from New York.
Student: Oh.
10 minutes later...
Student: How long you been married?
Me: 2 years.
Student: Do you love him?
Me (choking slightly): Yes...(pause). Sorry.
Student: (laughs loudly. I notice that the back of his letterman jacket says "The Beast". Go figure.)
5 minutes later...
Student: But you're not wearing a wedding ring.
Me: (oh shit)
