If one more 22 year old calls me Ma’am, I am going to scream!

Lastnight was “College Night” at the bar and the children were out in full force. “College Night” means $1 beers and reduced drinks. These kids kill me with the ‘yes ma’am’ and ‘no ma’am’ and ‘thank you ma’ams’.

While I appreciate their respect, when the hell did I become a Ma’am?

One of my favorites…the inevitable drunken hugs from these kids and the ‘you are such a nice lady‘ from the girls or the ‘ I’ve always been attracted to older women ‘ from the guys.

Again….exactly when the hell did this happen?

The kicker of it all is that all of my friends laugh about the fact that I basically look the same as I did at 21. A little more refined and a tad more graceful, then again I have also been told by these same friends that I acted 35 at 19….but I still do look pretty much the same. But apparently to these kids I look like their Grand-Ma.

Maybe I will start carring around my Senior pictures to show these little whipper-snappers. Other than the big 80’s hair, I’ve kept up pretty well.

Today it Friday, and we get more of an adult crowd. I think I will find a nice middle aged man to flirt with tonight at work just to hear the words ‘young lady’.

 Have a great day all, and may no one over 12 call you Ma’am.

    Aww man, I’m 27 and get called ma’am all the time, even when I’m out with my parents. Does that mean I look old? :/

    LOL, I have so missed your sense of humour! Hey, take thanks from the fact that you got the line 2i’ve always been attracted to older women” there are a million women that didn’t! Personally I think you look great.
