Mid-life crisis

7 April, 2006
Posted in: Work

Me: I was saying today in the office that I was 37. Our 22 year old trainee was visibly startled.

Him: I hate to say this but, you know it’s not that she thinks you don’t look it.

Me: I know, it’s just that she’s surprised that someone my age manages to get out of the house at all.

    as you’ll have noted, i braved a trip to the makeup counters the other day (thanks for stopping by, btw) and the girl who did my makeup said something about the skin of the eyelid as we age and the comment was so pointed at me. sigh.
