This guy comes into our shop the other day, while my girls and I were having lunch with Cory. Cory had to go out to check on someones car, and in the office, we proceeded to have the following conversation;
"So, whose birthday is it?" Says the customer, noticing the foil balloons in the corner.
"Oh, those were from Cory's birthday on the 13th" I respond.
Melania looks up and says "My dad is thirty-four!" (in her two year old voice).
"Thirty-four, huh?" Says the customer.
"My mom is 29!" Julietta then says.
The customer looks at me, practically winks and says, "Oh, forever 29, huh?!" Like I had taught my kid to say that or something!!
So I was like, "No, I really am 29!" I still don't think he believed me. Sheesh! Way to make a girl feel lousy, and I thought I was approaching 30 looking pretty good.

I've never understood why women lie about their age. If you're 45 and claim to be 39, you're not doing yourself a favor. Women should claim to be older than they are. Then people will say, "Wow! she looks REALLY good for 52!"
ReplyDeleteBTW. I just celebrated my 48th birthday.
