10/19/2010 Rhetorical Questions Don't Need Answers

*Walks in jauntily and lies down*
Hi Mr. Blog,
I shouldn't feel this cheery but I do.
A few days ago I was talking to Brenny on the phone
and I asked the rhetorical question,
"I wonder if the cruise lines practice
blatant age discrimination like the school districts?"
And instead of just listening to my worries and doubts
she answered me, "Why the heck do you think they'd want you
when they could have some cute young twenty-five year old?"
I was crushed.
Because I know she may be right.
Funny thing is, despite being plagued with self-doubt,
I'm working twice as hard on my resume
and craft samples that I'm taking along.
I feel cheery and full of self-doubt at the same time!
Ciao!
