Botox Now?

I went out with a guy who was cute and very vain. One day he told me he was going to get his botox treatments later in the week.

I looked at him closely and didn't understand the need at all. But he is in the public, so looks are very important to him.

We met after the treatments and OMG, it really did make a difference. It was amazing. This hot guy looked at least 10 years younger. The relationship didn't last as long as the botox did, but I will never forget the difference it made.

My boyfriend, Gyu (Q), is 40 years old. He looks a lot younger. In fact a friend (who was joking, I think), told me, "I'm a little disappointed in you. With all the kids in America that need a good home, I'm not sure why you adopted a foreign kid". Q says that 40 is old in Korea. If 40 is old, then I've been dead for several years. We do live in a youth oriented society, and being gay makes it more so.

Last week a group of us from work went to lunch at Zoopa's. It's a salad/soup bar buffet restaurant in South Center. I loaded up my salad plate and skipped the soup. Q has me eating much better.

Every night he makes us a salad which consists of green leaf lettuce and spinach. He adds cucumbers, mushrooms, tomatos, apples and walnuts. He serves the salad on the dinner plates and it fills the entire plate. Those little plates are what we eat our main course on. So the meat and potatoes (usually sweet potatoes) are on the little plates. I think Americans have been eating the wrong proportions forever.

But I digress. So we are at Zoopas, I go to the register and pay. The kid at the register has tatoos and looks to be about 18. He's very nice and attempts to make conversation. I get my receipt and go sit down. We are eating and I glance down at my receipt. WTF? He gave me a senior discount. I'm not sure how old you have to be to get the discount, but really? One of my co workers said the kid was interested in you and was watching you, so he wanted to give you a discount. Really? Come on. If that's true why don't they have a button called Cute or HOT Discount? Now don't get me wrong, I like the idea of saving money and their senior discount is 15%. But was it worth less than $2 to have the hit to my ego?

While writing this, I'm running back and forth to the bathroom mirror remembering the botox. Is it time to do this? Am I really ready for the Senior Discounts?
