"Are you in high school?"
ME: No.
"Are you in university?"
ME: No. I'm done with everything.
"So you're married?"
ME: No.
"Oh, so you're not done with married."
(pause)
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
ME: No.
"Do you have an ex-husband?"
ME: (starting to laugh) No.
Another kid chimes in, "Look, she's laughing. She DOES have an ex-husband. Miss Heinz, you have an ex-husband, right?"
And this is just one example of why the life of a teacher is never dull and boring.
Note to self: Always carry a Post-It to write down these kinds of conversations.
