I am incensed! I am outraged! I am furious!*
I cannot BELIEVE what I just heard on the phone!**
There I was, minding my own business, having a perfectly LOVELY conversation with Jaclyn. I don't know how the subject of age even came UP, but all of a sudden she says...
"How old are you again? Forty-something?"
I said, "EXCUSE ME? I'm THIRTY-ONE!"
I just was in shock. Forty-something? FORTY-something? All right, I know I'm a little rough-looking*** sometimes, but come on. I do NOT look forty.
The nerve of some people. I mean really.
Harrumph.
* Amount of actual rage may vary
** Suspension of disbelief may be required
*** Don't touch this with a ten-foot pole
In case you can't tell, she basically dared me to write this. It really happened, though, her asking me if I was forty-something. We had a lot of fun with my indignance.
