Elevator

Floor 12
Enter elevator

Floor 10
Old lady enters. Exchange of polite, but cool, head-nod hellos.

Floor 6
Athletic girl skates onto elevator, adjusts songs on iPod Nano.

Floor 5
Old Lady: You know it's illegal to skate inside.

Floor 4
Girl: Yes, I know.
Old Lady: It tears up the floors and ruins the wax.

Floor 3
Old Lady: I guess that's your generation.

Floor 2
Old Lady exits.
Girl looks at me like, "what's her problem"

Floor 1
Me: I am completely appalled by you. I almost got out at floor 2 as a protest.
We say goodbye and exit separate doors.
I wonder what I had been thinking about on Floor 11.

I wonder what you were thinking on floors 9-8 and 7.
