You Can Take That to the Bank



I'm a dime piece!

Yup, you heard me right. That's what the security guards at the library told me.

Well they did not actually tell me, one old guard said to the other old guard: "that's a dime right there."

And seeing that it wasn't any coins on the floor and I was the only lady there sporting all of my teeth and a fresh shower, I had to believe they were talking about me.

Was that vain of me?

Well, I didn't know whether to be flattered or insulted. I mean here it is these old timers, I mean late 60 early 70s checking me out and trying to be hip. Isn't it a rule against that? And had they been flashlight cops, I would have told them something but since they already looked a little shaky and were tooting guns, I just looked at them and shook my head.

It was almost as bad as watching the 80 year old granny getting high off a dipper. Or driving around the Chi' and seeing 50 year olds still gang banging. It's like at what age will you leave the foolishness alone and grow the heck up? I mean don't get me wrong, I am a huge fan of Never Never land but I do believe at some point we have to put on our big girl and big boy drawls and play the part.

So maybe if Barney Fife and his partner would have done that they would have realized that I was more than a dime cuz I'm Top Shelf.

"There comes a point in time when we all have to leave our childhood behind and step into adulthood, whether we want to or not. There also will come a time when we will have to leave adulthood and experience that eternal peace. Therefore, don't waste your future trying to hold on to your past."

  1. Very interesting. I certainly can relate because if anyone would have told me several years ago that I'd have a husband who was 21 years older than I am, I would have told them they are liars. I will say this though, the older ones know how to treat ya better than these wanna-be drawn out thugs that we do come across.
