This is definitely my day for weird-ass messages.

One gets tired of being a weird magnet.

As if it wasn't enough to be greeted first thing in the morning by a comment on a journal entry from January from out of the ether.

As if I didn't get a lengthy voicemail on my business cell phone from a total stranger about something unrelated to the business that issued me said cell.

"Dear AARP,

I'm not 50 yet for another six months. Kindly get out of my mailbox and bother someone else.

Thank you."

It's not just you. Those goofballs are in a lot of people's mailboxes who are nowhere near retirement age.

Hey! I'm 54 and those goofballs have made my life a lot easier! Between the discounts and the info on prescriptions I don't spend nearly what I used to on that stuff! Yeah it's kind of weird to use my AARP membership for getting discounts on a hotel room, but with all the travel I do in my kingdom, every little bit helps. The discounts are so worth the membership! :)

I have never lied about my age and I won't start any time soon. I can't do a darn thing about being 50 when the time comes. But that time is not yet, so AARP can back off and stop trying to rush me.

I have a birthday next month. Why do I have a feeling they'll be tracking me down soon enough too... :(

Been getting mailings from them for several years, and Im still several years from that 0 birthday... Hey if they cant tell, I'm tempted to see if they will let me join now, the discounts are good!
