Disturbing the Status Quo

 My wife and I decided to shake things up a bit at church by sitting on the opposite of the chapel from where we normally sit. We'd had a couple joke with us about "changing sides", so when an older woman walking past where we were sitting turned as if to talk to my wife and me, I prepared for yet another query about our sitting somewhere different. Instead, the woman asked if we were new to the ward (i.e., congregation). "No," I replied. "I'm the ward clerk." She appeared confused at that, and then turned to find a seat without another word.
