Tomorrow morning is the BYU Homecoming Parade. Along with several of my co-workers I am going to be a Key in the parade.
Yes, a key.
I actually told my brother this last night and he laughed in my face! Apparently being a key in a parade is super humiliating. Maybe, but maybe not! I am stoked.
Anyway, my co-worker, and great friend, Saryn, and I went to Costco to buy candy today. Boy, was that a treat.
I haven't been to Costco in a really long time. Since I was young and my mom actually had a need to buy everything in bulk. The most exciting part is always Costco's samples.
FREE LUNCH PEOPLE!
I remember it being exciting, but today was a whole different experience.
All I have to say is that the Costco sample people have to be pret-ty aggressive.
The olds were crazy! The second there was a new batch of samples out they would flock to them and snatch them like we were in the great depression again! Bumping elbows and squeezing between people I felt like I was among vultures. One Sample Lady put her arm up and firmly explained to an eager young man that he couldn't grab a sample before it was put under the plastic display. There was this mom with her extra-large cart, filled with stuff and her two children, that almost ran me over to get to an inch of cinnamon role. When I looked at her irritation radiated from her eyes.
I'm sorry I was in the way of your mini cinnamon role Lady!
Oh man, I couldn't stop laughing.
Next trip to Costco I will be more prepared for the intense competition for those samples.
