Do you ever see a really old person and it hits you that you will be like that one day? Some are extremly rude, while others can't get two words out without coughing up a lung. Are you afraid that you will spend the last 25 years of your life wasting obscene amounts of time at your local IHOP? Does it bring a shiver to your spine knowing that in 40 years, Everybody Loves Raymond will lull you to sleep?(EVERY.SINGLE.NIGHT.) Fear not young American! One of my favorite source of stories comes from the time I worked at Longs Drugs. It was like a octogenarian safari. A crystal ball into the future of your life.
While their were many different kinds of old peoeple who would come in, one thing tied them together. If liquor or candy was on sale, you could bet your last Depends that they were stocking up. 3 liters of Vodka? Check. 5 packs of Red Vines?Check. So don't sweat it. Being old is going to kick ass! You get to eat lots of candy and drink even more alcohol.
Just a quick idea that I wanted to get out there. Hope you feel better.*
*this post brought to you by the line of old people at Tip Top the other night. Thanks for being so rude and, well...old.
