Costco

After dim sum and a quick respite at the apartment, the boyfriend and I braved the outside world and went to Costco. It had been a while since I had been in a Costco and I forgot how crazy/scary/wonderful a wholesale warehouse can and cannot be. We got enough wine to last us til spring time, a five pound bag of frozen corn and a variety of other things in mass form. As we were leaving I saw somebody with a 100 set of gel pens and really wanted to run back in and get me some of those. But I didn't.

As we were leaving a young woman was walking towards the entrance with a look of pure agony...really she looked like she was about to cry....I overheard her, as she paused outside the door, say I really hate this place.
