My Father on Costco

My father is 78 years old and angry at the world.

These are his stories.

“We got this new thing called a Costco. And I’ve got a card. I want you to go over there and check it out.”

“Do you need something?”

“No.”

“Then why…”

“Costco is on Highway 6. Get off at William Fitch. Go past the Exxon then Lowe’s then Chick-fil-A. Past Whataburger. Past Frost Bank. Past St. Joesph Clinic. Keep going. You’ll pass an empty lot. Lots of weeds. No one’s taking care of it. Go past that. Keep going. The next two turn offs are for Costco. The first is for the store. The second for the gas station they have. If you miss the first turn you can go through the gas station part to get to the store parking lot. I mean you’ll look like an idiot that doesn’t know where he’s going if you do that but it will get you to the store.”

“OK. Again, do you need something there?”

“I told you I don’t.”

“Then why…”

“It’s a nice store. Only a few months open. But you need a card to get in…”

“I have a Costco card.”

“Not one to this store. It just opened.”

“Ok. Gotcha.”
