100 Confessions: Elevator Practices


(84) I jam the "close-door" button to keep other people out of elevators. Elevators can be awkward. The only time people usually make conversation is if I have a dog. Conversations are usually like "What's your dog's name?" "What kind of dog?" "How old is she?" Notice that there is never any recognition that I exist. I don't know why people think it's less awkward to ask for a dog's name than a person's, but whatever.

So I'm an awkward avoider. If given the opportunity to get in elevator alone (and with no one watching), I try to keep my ride solo.
