Today I went to Costco for the first time in about 4 years. I’d forgotten the sheer magnitude of stuff that resides inside. And it reminded me of the movie Idiocracy and how they portray the future.
We got a pizza. Let me preface my next comment by saying I don’t care for pizza. I’ve had lots of bad pizza in my life. Every so often a pizza will look good and I’ll think – Hey! I wouldn’t mind eating some pizza right now! – and I surprise myself when that happens. But anyway, we got one of the huge Costco pizzas and I was decidedly looking forward to it. And it was the single most disgusting pizza I’ve ever eaten two bites of. The crust was bitter and the cheese tasted off and the sauce might have been ok but it was really hard to tell under the bitter and the off. Why two bites? Because I really couldn’t believe the first one. I thought it couldn’t really be that bad. But it was. So, that ought to do me for another 3 years. We threw the rest away. The recently emptied trashcan is now halfway full of gross pizza.
In other news, my body is made of lead today. I’m having difficulty simply walking and keeping upright. I started a new medication, Wellbutrin, a few days ago and so far, I’m tired, which is the opposite of what is supposed to happen I think. The sucky thing about new medications is that you have to wade through the bad ones for a few weeks before you move on. So it could be weeks of knuckle dragging and drooling.
If you wanted a Tshirt, you’ve got approximately a few more days to order. There have been enough people get one to put the order in at any time, so let’s say the cut-off is Sunday night.
I just started on lexapro two weeks ago and am not happy with my progress. It is my first time on an SSRI and the side effects are “driving me crazy”. Wellbutrin was suggested but I havent started it yet. the lexapro made me tired and I dont want to go in to a coma because I am taking Wellbutrin too. I am sleeping an average of 3 hours more then normal already. I would love to know your progress on Wellbutrin to compare notes. Good luck, Jess
I’d like to order two but the shopping cart isn’t working for me.

Thanks!
The Wellbutrin is worth the first couple of crappy weeks. I did Zoloft and I hated it, but my doctor insisted it was the best med for post partum. I had no sexual appetite whatsoever. I was very dizzy the first couple of days. It is finally starting to kick in, I think I went on it about a month ago. I still have my highs and lows, but the lows don’t last as long, and they aren’t as intense.
I hope you get to feeling better soon. I guess I am fortunate to have not had side effects from my meds. I have been on Lexapro for 3 or 4 years(minus) 9 months for pregnancy and it works great.
I am pumped about the minimum order being met and the shirts being ordered soon.
Have you guys had any issues with driving and Wellbutrin?
The only thing that is fit to eat made at Costco is the carrot cake. I would have taken it back, they have a 100% satisfaction guarantee, and I hate hate hate wasting money on something I cannot use. Now I am about to let the internet know what a jackass I am.
Isn’t Costco pizza the greasiest thing you’ve ever eaten? The hot dogs look pretty groady too. But, dude, I like the deals they have on Pull Ups. And chicken breasts. And toilet paper. Which you need a lot of if you eat the pizza.
I usually tag along with some co-workers to Costco about twice a year.
Where else can you get a 15 gallon drink, pretzel the size of a midget, and a hot dog the size of my arm… for $1.25?!
This is what’s right with America!
i am scared of that place
It is like too much stimuli for me
whole foods has good za
goats cheese and bacon
yum
I have had friends on Wellbutrin and have been on it myself…One friend did really well and has been on it for years. Most of us, though, got very irrational and grumpy and just generally crazy irritable. So beware! Because it’s hard to listen when people start saying “Gee, you sure are a pill lately!”
and I hope you do very well on it! Good luck!
