That Gives Me a Pain in the Middle of My Forehead

Life slaps reality up the side of my head on a regular basis.

Like trying on a pair of jeans that are so tight, your head hurts.

"That's the way they're supposed to fit!" giggles the young girl helping me.

"No, not at my age, " I reply.  "People my age get strokes from pants this tight."

"Really?" she looks at me with wide-eyed innocence.  "I didn't know that."

"It's true.  Tight jeans are a leading cause of death in people my age and unwanted pregnancy in people your age."

"Really?"

Sometimes it's like shooting fish in a barrel.
