I had my first serious senior moment this morning. Yes, I've said Happy Monday and it's Tuesday and other minor stuff. This was weird.
I was gassing up my car this morning and after all the ridiculous stuff you have to punch in.....Do you want a car wash? yes/no. Pick your grade......3 choices. Enter your zip code. I drew an almost complete blank. I knew the last 2 digits, but that wasn't going to get me any fuel. I couldn't remember the beginning 3 numbers. I finally had to ask the fellow next to me what zip code we were in. He was very helpful and once he said the first 3 numbers, I was like "oh yeah." Spooky!
