MY TRIP TO COSTCO

k3n..no

i wish it were true. i have been known to say some pretty goofy things in stores, but this wasn't one of them.

i get them from my family. doesn't everyone have a funny, crazy family? there are a bunch of us and we're all nutty as fruitcakes. must be in the jeans. er, genes. we have other stuff in our jeans besides cat nuggets. some other nuggets.
