    Talking "Little Man" Gets Carded

    I think I woke up in the Twilight Zone yesteray - but I'm not complaining. I went to a chain drugstore while I was downtown yesterday to pick up some stuff and also asked for a pack of cigs (I know, I know, it's bad for me). Anyway, I used a store coupon I had to get $5 off my total and when the salesclerk rang up my stuff he asked me for ID. Here's how the conversation went:

    Clerk: I need to see some ID

    Me: ID? Why, I've never been asked for ID for a store coupon before.

    Clerk: No, not for that, for this (points to the pack of cigs)

    Me: *hysterically laughing* What? Are you serious? How old do you think I am?

    Clerk: *very seriously* I don't know . . .

    Me: *pulling out my driver's license (covering my pic with my thumb 'cause it's still too girly) and putting it in front of his face* I'm 46, but thanks for making my day!

    He didn't think it was funny, but I was still laughing as I walked out of the store. Unbelievable! I was never even carded when I WAS a minor! Haha . . .

    And here's part two of my Twilight Zone day:

    I then went to the nursing home to see Mom and chatted with her for about an hour (I would have stayed longer 'cause I haven't seen her in too long, but she was in a weird mood and very argumentative about silly things). As I was saying goodbye to her, another resident that was sitting nearby asked her, "Is that your little man?" I couldn't believe my ears! I looked at Mom and she answered in a VERY annoyed voice, "No! That's my daughter!" I resisted the urge to laugh, patted the other woman on the back and ran out of there.

    OMG, what a weird day. I was only wearing shorts, sandals, a black T-shirt, baseball cap and shades. Nothing different from what I normally wear. And I had even trimmed my chin hairs (though I won't shave it all off), which normally makes people call me "ma'am". My son says it's the baseball cap and shades 'cause apparently that's what most minors wear. I just think I must be dreaming - but I'm sure the high will wear off as soon as I get my next "ma'am".

    Sorry to hear about your Mom arguing

    Other than that it sounds like a great day

    Be careful of the other old lady she may be after you

    Wow Lex, that would have made my day as well, except for the arguement with mom and buying cigarettes (I quit in the 70's). Too cool, dude.

    I know the feeling Lex. That happened to me about a year ago in a drug store as Rich. Must have been a boring day for the clerk as I don't look a day over 55 as a guy.

    I was thinking the same thing, Wendy - when Mom argues it usually means she's feeling alright, so I didn't take it too hard. Just Mom being Mom - she must be feeling good.

    Tina - thanks for the compliment, babe. Glad you're hanging around here more often.

    Haha, Shelly I hadn't thought of that - I'll have to watch out for her.

    Holly - I quit in the 70's too, but it's back. Must be part of my bad boy persona.

    Aw, thanks Sally. People usually think I'm a bit younger, but there's no way I look as young as that clerk thought - he must need glasses or something. Was pretty cool, though.

    You know, Kieron, it sounds like people in the UK must look younger than their counterparts on this side of the pond, so that's probably why you get carded here and not there. And if I'm looking younger, that must mean I've been hanging around with you Brits for a while now.

    Haha, Sal, but you're young at heart - that must be what he saw.

    Don't you wish we could figure it out, so we could repeat whatever it was everyday?

    Love your avatar, btw.

    Haha Capt, that's excellent on both counts. Must be a fun time. I'm still at the stage where NOT getting carded is exciting, because it means I look older...
    Duude John, love the avatar. In shared Eddie-ness, this really sexy guy asked me the other day if I wanted a cup of coffee. I was very tempted to answer "Yes, very much, but that's sorta awkward because there's someone else in the room."
    Anyay don't wanna be a thread stealer. Yay for the Capt.
    I wanna know, can you show me
    I wanna know about these
    strangers like me
    Tell me more, please show me
    Somethings familiar about these strangers like me

    LOL, that's too funny... reminded me of the one and only time I got carded too and I was 28 I asked the bouncer (nightclub) if he was having a laugh, to which he looked at me with a straight face and said 'do I look like I'm kidding'... pulled out my drivers licence... he went bright red, but it made my night

    "Is that your little man?"
    The "man" part was ok, but "little"....sounds kind of derogatory to me.

    Very cool, Bi - you know Eddie stories are always welcome. Mmmm . . . Eddie

    Wow, Adam, petrol? That story is crazy . . .

    Aw, Lily . . .

    Tamara, that's pretty funny - I can totally picture you saying that.

    Nah, Laurie, I didn't take it that way. I figure my mom has probably been bragging about her grandson (my son) to everyone there and the woman may have assumed that's who I was. So I guess that's a double compliment - she thought I was young enough to be her grandson.
