Punctuation Goddesses Ride Elephants Made of Commas
by Francine DuBois

Overheard in a bathroom, Chicago, 2005

We've lived here for a while now.
        We don't live in the Field Museum.
No, I mean the US, Sarah. It's like some other country. We don't live in Tennessee, although we still have friends there.
        Sierra, you're retarded.
Thank you.
