As some of you know, I work from home. So, most days I am at home ALL. DAY. LONG. And usually if I get out of the house it's usually just to go play tennis or go to an exercise class for an hour or two.
Yesterday, I had serious cabin fever, though, and needed to get out of the house. I decided to go to a shoe store (although I'm not sure why since I pretty much live in my Isotoners). I was trying on some sandals when a cute little college girl nearby who was trying on pumps for a formal asked my opinion of her choices. Obviously, she looked past my "work clothes" (yoga pants, t-shirt, and flip-flops) and thought whatever I might say could help her choose.
I channeled my inner-Stacy London and gave her my opinion. She nodded and agreed and then said....
"Thanks so much! I usually go shopping with my mom, but she's out of town right now. Thanks for filling in for her!"
Ouch......

All high school/college students think late 20-year-old people, and especially 30+ adults are over the hill.
Ugh!!! It's such a strange feeling...not long ago, at a Super Bowl party, actually, I was up in a room with Landry and also in the room were five other teenage girls, laughing and having a good time. I just remember thinking, when did I become the mom?!?!?!? The other day, I was getting my hair done and my hair stylist, a man, asked how old I was going to be. I told him I would be 31 and he said "oh, you don't look old". Not "oh, you don't look THAT old" just plain & simple that 31 is old to him. He then told me he's 25. Sigh.
We all look the same to college students...I hear it every day here on campus! Don't sweat it too much!
