And then, to top off the day....

I had to stop at the store on the way home. Among the things I needed was more denture adhesive. In my ongoing quest to chew without losing my lower plate, I was examining several labels closely when an older lady behind me piped up.

"Oh, don't guess! Call whoever you're buying that for and find out what brand they use!"

I laughed, and tried to explain that I was the denture wearer, but she refused to believe me. I practically had to pull out the lowers and show her before she'd believe I wore false teeth.

You think most people would accept "Thanks, but I'm looking for my own use. I lost my teeth to illness." and move on.
