This old gal…
Has noticed something…a pattern…a happening…a reoccurrence…the automatically applied senior citizen discount to a bill…not requested by purchasing me…but generously added by the adorable friendly youth…behind the counter… Frugal me is thankful for the savings…but vain me…the one that feels 35 years old inside…is slightly taken aback…like omg…is it noticeable…is this charade of acting like a young hip thing…not working… But then on the flip side…fast forward a bit…and here’s the old gal…enthused to go to a wing ding for Winter Texans…aka old people who are retired…few people there under the age of 60…except the vendors… Enjoyed some fun…food…live music…our bff Winter Texans won the gold medal door prize…a bag full of wonderful goodies of which they shared the love…by bequeathing us with a gift card to Whataburger… Being young and hip has its up side…but the perks of being an oldie are there too…the restaurant discount…the early bird special…Winter Texan Friends…never setting the alarm…ever again… Old Senior Me knows…you can’t have it all…to enjoy the senior perks…you gotta be…a senior…it’s like that old saying…you can’t have your cake and eat it too…well…maybe you can’t have the cake…but no one ever said anything about…a Whataburger… And this husband of mine…agrees…
