40s

i was on the phone with one of our suppliers when suddenly he tells me, 'you've been doing frequent updates of your blog, ma'am..'



i was dumbfounded, 'you, too, have been reading it?!'



there we were, talking technical stuff and logistics, then my trivial blog comes up.  ugh!



sometime back, the supplier asked whether i was in friendster.  i said yes.  he invited; i accepted.  now he, too, has been receiving 'cynthia has updated her friendster blog' notifications.  yuck!



i've been trying to figure out how to turn it off, i couldn't find where it's set.  i think the settings have to be modified on the recipient side.  baaaddd!



anyway, so he mentions the recent entries and tells me there's someone he'd like to introduce to me.



i go, 'he might be married!'



he assures me the guy is not.



i ask, 'does he smoke?  drink?  gamble?  womanize?...'



he says he'll check.  then hesitantly he adds, 'but then, ma'am, the guy's already 40...'



i burst out laughing.  'what are you talking about?!  i'm already 42!'



from the other end of the line, his shock was palpable.  'is that true, ma'am?!'



'yes.'



'but you don't look 42!'



'maybe.  i look 41...'
