How Old?
374I went to the grocery store yesterday and was immediately ID-ed for booze. The checker was a very exuberant black woman who's response to my driver's license was a spontaneous, "Wooo-HOOOOOO!!!!! Look at YOU, girl!"
I laughed and asked her how old she had thought that I was and she said, "22 at most."
She seemed genuinely shocked by my impending 30th birthday. I told her that at least I had moved out of people thinking that I was a teenager and she responded with a wag of the finger and a "nu-uh...then you'd have all them creepy men tryin' ta date 'cha."
I wanted to tell her that I was dating Ben Adrian...
