Dear Blog Readers,
We have become the kind of blogger we never wanted to be — the kind who has a "read our blog" button on our website but the newest post is months old. We blame Facebook for this — it's so much easier to write something there and we seem to have more followers there than we did here on the blog. Still, we can't quite bring ourselves to give it up altogether yet — so instead, we're posting this little note to explain our lack of current entries. Please do check out our facebook page, we think it's fun, if not quite as long form.
sincerely, the Joie de Blogger.

Just Saying . . .

When a customer that you don't know at all asks you "How old do you think I am?" and she's a woman . . . and she has also just confided that she is joining an on-line dating service . . . decide how old you think she is . . . and then subtract five to ten years. No matter what. Otherwise, you may find yourself in the awkward position of guessing she is in, say, her fifties, only to find she is in her forties. Just a word of warning . . . make it easy on everyone and guess low !
