The Girl/Woman Divide

We watch a lot of "King Of Queens". I mean, a LOT of it. We own the entire 9 seasons in the collectable IPS truck case. We've watched it several times through and I am not relating King of Queens situations to my real life situations. I think that means that we watch too much of it, but I digress...

One of the episodes is about Carrie turning thirty. She talks about the girl/woman divide. I think I've finally hit that point because I realized in Staples the other day whether I get "Miss-ed" or "Ma'am-ed" depends on what I am wearing. If, for example, I am wearing cargo shorts, a t-shirt, and flip flops like yesterday, I get asked "Anything I can help you find, Miss?". On the other hand, if I am wearing a dress, I get "Good Afternoon, Ma'am".

The moral of the story? More cargo shorts for me.
