Tropical Sunburn

We were having dinner at Chilli’s and i ordered a margarita
The waiter nodded and returned five minutes later
“I’m so sorry… but did you order a Tropical Sunburn?”
“Yes.”
“I’m so sorry about this… but i need to check your ID cos you don’t look of age. I’m really sorry about this.”
“Oh, it’s okay!” i responded brightly

The last time they checked my ID, Smellie was wearing a Mickey Mouse shirt and i was wearing one with a cartoon devil cat
Today was different. I wore what i usually wear for work.

If they want to mistake 23-year-old me (who has girl friends commenting she’s getting lines under her eyes, who have their kids calling her auntie) for an underaged kid….

Hell, i have no qualms.
