Conversations with Librarians

Septagenarian Librarian [to me]: I just had to say, have you ever thought of going into fashion design? Because I love your whole style and look. You should be a model.

Me: Oh, thank you! You know, I am attempting to make clothing...

SL: Huh!

Me: It's...interesting...so far, but I'm working on a dress.

SL: Well, that's neat! What grade are you in?

Me: I'm a senior.

SL: So, will you be going to college for clothing design?

Me: No, neurobiology, actually.

SL: Huh. 

This may be the best thing about being a dilettante. People find it terribly confusing.
