Ship me away

Alright so for all of you that know how awkward I am, this story will hopefully make you laugh... Everyday at work FedEx or UPS delivery guys come drop off packages to us and usually we exchange in friendly conversation. 

So one fine day this new delivery boy came in and asked me if I was going to school.  (And just so everyone knows, I hate that question.)  Because no I am not going to school right now, no I don't know when I will go, no I don't think I'm a failure if I am not in school and it shouldn't make a difference anyway.  I guess that in a college town though that is all people can think to make up conversation.  Oh well.  Anyway, Here is our conversation...

FedEx Employee: "So are you going to school right now?"
Me: "Uhh, yea sure, I am" (Because its easier to say yes then no.. not in this case though)
FedEx Employee: "Oh awesome, what are you going into??"
Me: "Uhhhh... Uhhh... Child Development" (first thing that came into mind)
FedEx Employee: "That is so cool, what classes are you taking?"
Me: "Well... Hm... you know what's weird? I can't even remember my schedule right now... oh well.  I'm just taking the, uhh, usual 'family' based classes"
FedEx Man: "How long will that take you to finish, what kind of job are you looking to get... etc etc. (asking every possible question he could think of)"
Me: "Ooh well, ya know what? I'm actually really really busy right now... we'll talk next time, SEE YA!" (Ran to the back room) My face was bright red- case and point, NEVER LIE.

Well ever since then when he pulls his big FedEx his truck up to our building I run in the back room and have Shannon talk to him.  A couple of days ago I couldn't get out of talking to him, so when he came up I thought I was totally prepared.

FedEx Employee: "So how is school treating you?"
Me: (Refusing to make eye contact) "Oh I think I'm going to drop out"
FedEx Employee: "What? Drop out?  But you've already been in classes, why would you just drop out?"
Me: "I guess school isn't for me.... happens a lot I hear"
FedEx Employee: "Alright, well when do you think you'll start back up?"
Me: (Getting fed up with all the questions, how much does this guy insist on knowing??) "Oh- who knows, I've got a lot of other stuff going on right now, my dog, car, boyfriend... job... ya know? The usual.  SEE YA"

I just hate when I get myself in awkward conversations. And no one in the office is at my desk to get me out of them.  Oh well, just so everyone knows, I'm not attending school right now, and if I say I am, it's only because I can't control it. :)
