Must Be The New Face Cream...

My Mom & Dad came to visit me for Christmas. They pulled into my driveway and I went outside to greet them. My Mom gets out of the car and the first thing I notice is how tiny she is, I instantly feel protective and think I would kill anyone that tried to hurt her. It's not like this is the first time I have ever seen her but it still hits me when I do see her, she is a tiny person. That night I give them their presents, not much, actually very little, but that doesn't matter to any of us ( I'll speak for them here since they know the deal ). As a matter of fact I gave my Dad a calendar from 2007, yeah I know what year it is but I had forgotten it when it was the right year, so I gave it to him anyway. That's the kind of daughter I am, I bought it your getting it whether it's useful ( or even current ) or not.
My Mom starts to open one of her gifts as she is unwrapping I am explaining it already. I bought her anti wrinkle/aging face cream, nice daughter huh?! She talks about the effects of aging, she talks about the lines and wrinkles, so when I heard the ad for this cream I ordered it. I didn't think at that time what she might think when I gave it to her, so I just start explaining, it's not that I think you need it but you talk like you think you need it. We all had a good laugh. And actually I will be thankful if I look like her when I am her age, there again that didn't come out right, not that she's old, but I'll quit while I'm ahead or at the very least before I get farther behind.The next morning she uses the face cream and then we decide to go shopping.
We go into town, to the Mall, to Barnes & Noble to be precise. We're shopping in Barnes & Noble, well she's shopping my Dad & I are looking. She buys something, I can't remember what but she gets on line to buy whatever it is. She is smiling when she comes back to where we are and she says: " That man in line just told me I had great hair and a great haircut " ( which she does ). Instantly I am looking to where she had been in line, my Dad & I both say at the same time " What guy? " She said "the guy that was in line behind me" In my head I'm thinking what guy, where, the whole Ted Bundy serial killer thing flashes thru my brain. My Dad says " well you do have great hair " I nod my head in agreement but I'm thinking wait a minute here my whole life didn't these same two people warn me against talking to complete strangers and today it's ok for some random guy to engage my Mother in a conversation about her hair?! What is going on here and where did the " New Ted Bundy " disappear too? And why do I seem to be the only one of us concerned about the possibilities? Is there no Robot from Lost in Space waving his robot arms in my Dad's head? If so he did a great job at covering. My Mom then said " It must be the new face cream! " The three of us just cracked up in Barnes & Noble.
