the older man

A belated anniversary date got off to a perfect start; I was carded at the movie theater. And when I didn't have any identification, I was allowed to get in with the guy who was "obviously over 21," according to the theater attendant. My husband was my adult guardian. Must have been my $1.99 large hoop earrings from H&M that made me look seventeen! Or maybe it was my completely flat chest. Whatever it was....I'll take it.

That's funny. Poor Alex! Wes has been carded the last 4 times (I've been counting) that he's ordered a beer/glass of wine. Crazy. I think he fits into the "obviously over 21" category too.

That's awesome! Both Andy & I have been carded at the movie theater. When they ask for my ID, I like to whip out a photo of my child to really drive in the point that I'm not 16. Now that I'm 30, though, it's kind of a compliment to get carded. Who would have thought?

Yeah, I used to hate those comments about looking young when I was 18 or 20. But, recently, a couple of random people have acted surprised when they found out I was near 30, and I could just kiss them!

OK, now that's hilarious in a creepy kind of way! Hope your date night was fun!

Forgetting Sarah Marshall. very funny. The trailer for Pineapple Express was worth the price of admission.

BTW, I was "obviously over 21" because I was showing major chest hair that night.
