While waiting at a downtown bus station, I was approached by a shuffling, hunched woman. She had the look of a forty-year-old going on seventy.
Shuffling, hunched woman: Hey, ya gotta check it!
Me: I beg your pardon?
SHW: Cellphones! Sometimes they leave 'em on; then you get zapped!
Me: Oh really?
SHW: Uh-huh... um.
[slight pause]
SHW: Oh, wait. I thought we was having a conversation. Nevermind. I'm messed up. Not high or anything; it's just my head - it doesn't work.
