Totally off topic, but funny........

Monday I took a trip downtown. Mostly windowshopping, but I decided it was time for a new lipstick.
I found two rather cheap ones, and went to pay.
When the transaction was finished, I said: Now I can smile beutifully.
The very young girl behind the register looked at me and answered..
Is it the first time you are trying makeup?
I'm 48, I'm female... I've been through a lot of makeup..
What do young girls think of?

Optimist,

I cannot imagine what an appropriate response to that would be. However, you have made me extremely curious about what you did say in response.

I just told her that my old lipstick was finished, and I needed a new one.
I tried to not make her embarrassed, but I had a good laugh on the inside.
