Today I discovered that if one must throw up in public, Costco is the best place to do so because:
1. Wide aisles allow other shoppers to avoid the mess, even if the mess is in the middle of the walkway;
2. Sample-giving employees are stocked with paper towels;
3. The normally annoying ride-on squeegee floor-cleaner (or indoor street sweeper, as Victor calls it) is likely to be close by and can clean up the mess in a jiffy without being summoned;
4. General noise masks your child's whimpering as you race around gathering your foodstuffs.
I also discovered that when Zeke repeatedly complains that his head hurts, he could mean that his stomach hurts.

For the first three things on your list I thought you were referring to yourself. I'm glad it wasn't you who vomited in public.
i thought it was you too. my son had an emergency potty incident at costco, so i feel your pain.
my daughter threw up at Costco once...but with her babysitter. glad to know that as places go, it's not a bad one. So sorry that he was sick!
I'm so sorry! Celeste peed all over the floor once in Harris Teeter...during a mystery shop, if I remember right. Can't remember if I mentioned that before. It was seriously embarrassing!
