Apr. 13th, 2008 11:53 pmI got carded today at Walmart while buying an inhaler. This is getting old, if even I, apparently, don't apear to be. Granted, when the cashier rang it up, the register ask if the customer was over 18, but I'm sure I look at least 18. Most people who meet me for the first time that I have asked or it has otherwise come up in conversation think I'm about 30, and that's if I'm wearing a hat, or not.
I swear the cashier was high, because when I gave her my driver's license, she just looked at it like I had just handed her a blank piece of paper. She eventually called the supervisor over to check it, and the supervisor just quickly said it was fine and walked away with having barely given me a glance.
Most of the time I like at least not looking old. It helps make me feel less self-conscious about doing things with my little ones, and doing things like playing paintball with Mike (not that I've done that in quite some time). I've never been good at acting my age, and I really don't want to now. But maybe I should stop wearing hats. Or baseball caps, at least.
