Chucky

Just a few minutes ago I was walking up the stairs with one of my more "interesting" students, Chucky. Here is how the conversation between us sounded.

Chucky: "Do you have a child?"

Me: "No, I don't."

Chucky: "Are you married?"

Me: "No, I'm not."

Chucky: "Do you have a boyfriend, and do you live with someone?"

Me: (Choosing to ignore the boyfriend question, I said, "Yes, I live with someone, I have a roomate."

Chucky: "Well, I think you'd be much happier if you lived with a boyfriend. How old are you anyway?"

Me: "I'm 25."

Chucky: Yeah, you should live with someone, and probably get married soon--you don't want to die alone.

Oh my god.

Are you a). My inner most thoughts, and b).My 82 year old Jewish grandmother??
