Coupon Clipper

I attended a focus group last night.  Two hours sitting in a room with a group of women talking about grocery shopping and coupon clipping, giving opinions on various junk mailers. 

Nothing for nothing but, I couldn’t believe this session was a grouping of women in my age group.  Many of them looked like they were my mother’s age.  Only more wrinkly, out of shape and sporting some serious mom pants. 

I prefer to think of 37 as being this or this.  In fact, I like to think of myself as being “that 37” but I should probably look in the mirror once in awhile, it’s just not the reality.

But it motivated me to hit the gym a little harder and stock up on sunscreen.  I don’t want to look 20 again, and I’m not even afraid of wrinkles.  But I’ll be damned if I’m going to start clipping coupons and organizing them in a three ring binder.
