Good luck selling me something now ...

So Michael and I were hanging out at the house on Sunday in the few hours between church and small groups when the doorbell rings. I went down the steps to answer it, and there was this guy there, wanting to get us to switch to his company for our natural gas. All well and good, but he basically lost any chance of getting us when his first question to me was "Are your parents home?" Maybe I look young, but is it really that uncommon for someone who's 23 to be living out of their parents' house?

Lori used to love that when they were first married. She'd say, "No, my parents are home. Goodbye".", and close the door.

Oops, that should say 'aren't' home.

Nothing wrong with looking young. It sometimes still happens to me and I'm 29.

I agree, nothing wrong with looking young. I get it all the time and no one believes me when I say I'm 26.
