Where is my Nursing Home Application?

I love loved getting my mail. The US Postal Service Carrier is was my friend.  I waived every weekend to my carrier.  I will throw rocks this weekend at my carrier.

That all changed today. 

How dare she put this in my mailbox!  Just because I moved out of the 25-34 age bracket last year I am some how thrown into a new group of mailers?  Can't wait for my nursing home application.

Too funny! At 36 I feel your pain. Chuck an extra rock for me - Smiles!

Bwahahaha!! Get ready for her Geritol coupons to follow!

You are not serious. Serious?

You are only 35? You, my friend, do not look a day over 25.

:) Hope that helps. :)

I've been getting those things for several years now; and I just turned 50 last November. I do look the part, however. Whereas: you most certainly do not!!!

Bwahahahaha! I'm sorry but I have to laugh. That really is funny. I would give my left arm to have been a fly on the wall just to witness the look on your face when you saw that particular peice of mail ;)

I used to be a member. Worked for a company that did work for AARP and one of the benefits was a free membership. Always was good for some strange looks when I busted it out to get the AARP discount!

Wow! That took the wind out of MY SAILS, just looking at it.
What is it about that over 34 age group? I started getting AAA mailings too, like I have a buick lesabre or something? So painful. I will maintain that I am 30 until everything starts to hit the floor!
And by the way, you look WAY younger than 35! Just start saying you are 30 and don't wait for anyone to ask for your ID, just show it. LOL, this makes me feel young again to be "carded".

Take Care

Now that you are wearing diapers, it seems only fitting that AARP is trying to recruit a new member! Getting old is just like adult diapers...It all Depends!

I busted out laughing when I read this! I'm a new subscriber and really enjoy your stuff! Only 35 and getting stuff from AARP? hahaha!

January 29, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterLin

I get those too. I'm 32. WHY???
It's bad enough I drive a mini-van, have more grey hair than I care to acknowledge, and I have some middle-age-spread starting in the rear.
*Sigh*
There is no hope of me being cool ever again, is there?
See ya at the old age home.

January 29, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterKelly

we get those also...i think they're trying to keep reminding us about them...for when the time comes...a long, long time from now!! really long time from now! super duper long, long time!!! like, decades!!

Actually, I know a lot of thirty something women who are VERY cool I think...

Thirty something women are actually very desirable for a number of reasons... but in a nutshell...

They are old enough to finally be at peace with themselves and know what they want (usually) - yet still young enough to look absolutely smoking - when they want to....

So no more complaining...sheesh...

If AARP would really accept you at your age, that actually is not a bad thing.... since they really do have a lot of nice benefits..

I had a customer come through who was set up for a car loan through their aarp account at a really low interest rate... I think it was a notch lower than WE would have been able to loan the money at... I thought that was a nice little benefit he had. And he wasn't retired....

Oh man! I'd write "Return to sender- re-send in 20 years" on that envelope.

January 29, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterSandy (Momisodes)

That's horrible!!! But I like Sandy's idea! My hubby gets the Veterans retirement stuff... don't know why, he's 33..and never been in the military...

January 29, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterNissa

Ouch! Can a trial offer on Depends be far behind?

January 29, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterDon Mills Diva

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm not the only one getting these. I do have about 10 years on you, but I'm not that old yet. =)

January 29, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterTara R.

HAHAHA! Oh, I mean - The Nerve!!
Hey, at least your mail carrier doesn’t know you that well. My own son recently said to me at the movies “Hey, dad, why don’t you get the senior’s ticket. Cause you’re old.”

January 29, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterBusyDad

Oh Sandy's comment was FUNNY!
I haven't gotten one. Yet. I'm sure my time is coming.

January 29, 2008 | Unregistered Commenteramy

I've been getting those since I was in my mid-twenties!

January 29, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterAmy

Oh no! I feel your pain and would join you to stone your mail carrier if we were closer!

January 29, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterStacey

My mail lady leaves me disciplinary forms. I'm serious. Once my mailbox fell off of the attachment while I was gone, and I came home to a note a pink slip telling me to get a new one..OR ELSE. oh man..i feeling a mail carrier hater blog coming on haha.

January 29, 2008 | Unregistered Commentermanda

Awwww... I'm feeling all left out here. I'm older than 34. Where's mine? Obviously it's all the rage now. :P

January 29, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterColeen

Don't they offer cards that, like, get you a discount at Denny's or Perkins? Totally worth it, if you as me!

January 30, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterSecret Agent Mama

Ouch. Maybe that carrier heard your bones creaking one day when you went to get your mail.

January 30, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterMomo Fali

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA.

okay, sorry, i wasn't laughing AT you, but..
HA HA HA HA HA HA.

Hey, you can get some pretty sweet discounts with that card! What?! Why are you looking at me like that?!

-snickers-

January 31, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterHeather

Oh, that is just wrong! I think Sandy's idea is pretty good, too. Send it back!

And then don't think about it again (for 20 years).

;-)
