A Feisty Senior Gives Me A Zinger

A few moments ago, I held the door open for a sweet-looking elderly woman and secretly I thought, "This meek little lady probably appreciates a nice gesture like this."

As she walked past me into the establishment, she pointed to my shoulder bag and said, "Your purse goes nicely with your outfit." And she followed up her zinger with a very self-satisfied chuckle.

I tried to quickly come up with a good retort, but I had nothing. All I could do was laugh and say, "Yep, I guess it does match." I wasn't expecting her to give me a zinger.

Hmm, file this one under: #FeistySeniors.

P.S. It's not a purse it’s a shoulder bag!
