Another work week started as usual and this week I was off on a week long business trip. I try to drive when I can and drive dressed to blend in. I was wearing a casual dress and sandals. As usual I found myself in need of a ladies room. I also needed fuel so I pulled into a travel center to take care of both. I parked and headed for the restrooms. It was incredibly busy for mid morning on a Monday. I went to the bathroom, washed my hands and was headed out to the main store area. As I was walking along a lady stepped in front of me looking at me intently. As I went to step around her she again cut me off. My heart stopped as I figured I was busted coming out of the women's restroom. I just looked back at her and she made my day. She said Marcie I don't believe you weren't going to speak. I guess I looked confused and she figured out I wasn't Marcie. I said " Sorry I'm not Marcie. My name is Rachel." She gushed her apology's and proceeded to walk me out to my truck. We talked as I pumped fuel and I bid her goodbye.
I realize she might have clocked me but I choose to believe I was honestly mistaken for her friend. We talked for about ten minutes and I left feeling great.
