Here’s a little “re-enactment” of an incident that recently happened to me while shopping for vitamins (as many of you may recall, I recently turned 40, so keep that in mind while reading):
Scene: Local health food Store. Main Character: Heather, feeling very youthful in her butt-lifting yoga pants, post work-out.
Me: Hi. Can you recommend a good One-A-Day Vitamin?
Owner of Store: Sure, no problem (with haste he sets an “Over 40 Women’s One-a-Day” on the counter).
Me: “Um, that was fast. What makes you think I’m over 40?”
Owner of Store: (No words are spoken. He just starts hysterically laughing and shaking his head like I have said the most witty, hysterical thing he has ever heard in his entire life.)
Me: “Well, OK then.” (At this point I am thinking I could also use some fiber in my old age, but decide to cut my losses and make a mental note to come back for those after showering next time, as I have convinced myself into thinking that this would make all the difference).
Owner of Store: You’re welcome! (At least that’s what I think he says, but he is still laughing so hard from out little exchange, it’s hard to tell…)
Here’s to yet another example of feeling younger than I apparently look!
