Senior Citizen discount?? Gaa..WTF?
OK....so I was up snow camping for a few days and on the ice. I forgot my swiss sunblock I've used for years...so long story short I came out of it with one hell of a frazzled snow-burned face looking like a racoon. I hop in my rig and stop at a little cafe on the road for a bite and some joe. Young waitress walks up to my table, looks at me and asks "Would you like the Senior Discount this morning, sir?"
I'm dumbfounded at first..
I'm not Senior Discount age YET. NOT SO DAMN SOON, ye young whippersnapper...I still have MORE life to live, dammit!!!!
I didn't tell her any of this, of course....just thought it. Why the heck not, I think to my self. So I look up and tell her in the most wizened old voice I could summon, "Yes, mam."
I'm seriously not ready for the Senior Discount shit yet!! I just barely got used to college-age kids calling me "Sir" for crikey's sakes!!!
Went to the restroom and looked in the mirror and some old grizzled man was peeping back right at me....he looked like one of those "90 winters" portraits.
Anybody seen the Geritol?
