School of Social Work ladies room. Break in evening class. I had just finished washing my hands when a friendly classmate (who I had just met) emerges from the other stall and starts washing her hands. I'm drying my hands when suddenly she bursts out with, "Meg! You look like you should do roller derby!"
Me: Huh? What? Why? (pause) Do I look mean?
Her: No. You just look like you should do roller derby. It's cool! That's my dream. I really want to do that someday.
Me: Well...thanks.
Another awkward pause and then we both exit.
