Spooky 17 – Haunted Me Again

Scene set: Trader Joe’s

People involved: Me & Old Guy w/ Petition

Convo went like this:

Me: [walking with shopping cart back to my car...]

Old Guy: Hi want to.… awkward pause, with head tilted like he wasn’t so sure about something... sign a petition to legalize Marijuana & Stop Car Insurance Surcharge Fee’s?

Me: Uhhh… not so much the Marijuana one, but what is the Car Insurance one about?

Old Guy: You’re of legal age, right?

Me: [a little set back, what the?] … Uh, yeah.

Old Guy: The Petition about Car Insurance is to stop Surcharges when you switch from one Insurance agency to another – currently they charge you a huge surcharge for switching. This Petition is to help stop that from happening. You are old enough to vote – right?

Me: Yes!

Old Guy: Ok, here you go. Sign legible here… You are 18?

Me: I’m 25

Old Guy: No you’re not.

Me: Yes, I am.

Old Guy: Right, 25 going on BARELY 18. You’re not fooling anyone hun.

Me: *sigh*… do I have to put my address here?

Old Guy: Yes, you registered to vote?

Me: Yeah, but not here in California. Oh well, looks like I can’t sign. Sorry, see ya!

Old Guy: Ok, bye.


This marks the 10th time someone has either told me I don’t even look a day older than 18, or that Clark looks like my Dad.

Can’t wait for the day I actually look my age, or closer to Clark’s age. ;)

Haha!
