Costco Insanity
After sleeping almost all night last night, and post 9am conference call, we made the trek to Costco. Richard's eye appointment was a pain in the ass. My shopping was a pain in the ass. Getting some contacts for him was a pain in the ass. Getting things loaded into the car was a pain in the ass. Getting things unloaded from the car was a pain in the ass. Getting things put away was a pain in the ass.
While I came out with a lot of the things on my list, I still just became exasperated at the layout of the store and the dodging of meandering people. At least at 10am it's theoretically full of business membership folks, but there were still a ton of moms and old people all with no sense of how aisles and carts work. But I survived, yay! I got the important items (stocked up on the vacuum packed chicken breasts, got some overpriced eye of round for those cheese steaks I've been craving, got more freezer bags in both gallon and quart size), picked up some specialty bread items that freeze well, and grabbed a few other things in the frenzy.
Once I clean up on the $1.99 top round from Safeway tomorrow, we'll be set on meat for a very long time.
