Professionable: The appearance of having the ability to perform the duties required by one's profession.
Today's the big to-do where I receive my plaque, and according to the invitation, have my photo snapped. Hey, I can still dream, can't I, that they'll take a photo tonight to replace the big green blob one? For the sake of the dream, we'll pretend we don't know that my boss won't be there to have her picture retaken, because they want her in the picture, too, so we can really pump up the promo that we really are the best place to live for the over 55 crowd.
Whoa, "over 55". We don't have anyone there that young; our youngest is in her 70s. I am closing in on over 55 much more rapidly than I'd like to! In a few years, okay, 9 or so, I could be living there! Except for one thing - the studio apartments rent for more than my take home pay. But, still, why did I have to go and realize how close I am to being able to qualify for senior living facilities?
Shoot. I guess they'd better change my plaque to read, "Best Old Puffy Lime Green Receptionist in the Ozarks."
