I went to the local community center yesterday to sign my daughter up for a preschool program. A much-coveted spot had finally opened up and I was more than excited to take it. I had called in advance and they were expecting me. A young man of about 20 greeted me at the front desk, shook my hand and said, “You must be Miss Mary!” Um, alrighty… He showed me around and explained the procedures (yes on sunscreen-application assistance, no on butt-wiping assistance) and handed me some forms to fill out. While I was perusing said forms I heard the young man speaking. He was asking somebody a question about the center’s Teen Program. It took me a moment to realize that he was speaking to me. He was asking me if I might have any older children who would be interested in participating in the Teen Program. Pardon me? I finished filling out the forms and placed them gingerly on the counter (as opposed to gingerly up his ass) and hit the bricks.
Then I headed to the drugstore to pick up a box of Nice ‘N Easy with “100% gray coverage”. Mother of a teenager? In your dreams, punk.
HAHAHA! Thanks for the morning laugh! And perhaps he thought you were a mom at 13? You don’t look a day over 26 to me!
That’s too funny! Of course, I am the mother of teens so maybe I shouldn’t be sitting here laughing:)
Maybe I shouldn’t have looked at him with a face that said, “Pull your pants up, young man. A fly might land in there!” But I HATE those saggy pants. A fly really COULD land in there…
LOL….I love when a laugh suddenly overtakes me, thanks!
Insult to injury? That very same day, I was picking up a pizza and while I was looking for the proper change in the bottom of my purse (Isn’t that where everybody keeps their change?), the attractive, young woman at the counter says to me, “Oh, I LOVE that you’re using change! My boyfriend always calls me an old lady when I do that!” What?!?!
rofl…is it okay if I add you to my blogroll? I NEED to keep track of you!
I’m adding you now…just let me know if you would like to be removed.
