Yesterday a woman asked me if I was Melissa's mother.
I have been mistaken for a lot of things. I've been mistaken for my brother. I've been mistaken for a boy. I've been mistaken for a Target manager after mistakenly shopping there with a red shirt on. But I have never been mistaken for someone's mother, especially when that someone is only a month and 2 days younger than me.
I'm not sure if the woman based the assumption on the fact that I look like I'm 50 or if Melissa looked like a little kid. Let's just say I was a slut and had Melissa when I was 12. That would make Melissa...14 now. I guess she could pass for a 14-year-old. Let's just go with that.
But the reason the woman asked me if she was my daughter was because I was parking at Melissa's work and I asked her if I could use Melissa's parking pass. So the woman assumed a 14-year-old was employed as a high-profile Hollywood assistant. Yeah, that's likely, right, guys?
I guess I'm gonna go exfoliate or something.

Hey, don't worry about it. I'm sure that lady was just an ass.

She is in league with "your" personal trainer. Her job is to make you feel old, furthering a sense that you need to get into shape. Next, they will have all the checkout people at your local markets refer to you as "Ma'am", and slip discount coupons to local plastic surgeons into your bag...
