Is the business center worth it?  In Canada, they were, but not sure around H-town since it's quite the haul from where we are.  The only saving grace - I wouldn't have to hit 610!

It is worth a relaxing "in-&-out in half an hour" without getting a terminal headache from the teeming throngs, si mam ma'am.

They have a slightly smaller frozen section*, si mam ma'am.

     *albeit with mega-boxes of corn dogs whereas the regular store has none, major food group man

There is no "vitamin/sundry" section beyond a selection of kill-painers, OK with us man.

Some sale prices may differ between it and regular store, different supplier agreements man.

Just take Highway Many (2x2x2x2x2x2 -[2+2+1]) south and exit West Airport, easy mam ma'am.

We should coordinate a mutual visit, see we mam ma'am man.

Spending her money; PRG is highly skilled QA professional who has $many leftover after paying for mini-Dave's daycare, would not go out twice in a week (and rarely went out even once a week) for anything more than fast food (which she does not care for) if we were still living on just my money. 🤣

2 cats here.  Both bolt to the location of their dishes when you stand up near feeding time.  They tend to cut you off in their furied run to get to their bowls.  I think the same..if you take me out while I'm trying to walk to feed you, how in the he!! do you think I'm going to be able to feed you?  

 

Then I remember they are cats and as much as they pretend to love you, they'd probably just eat you if they managed to murdered you before you managed to provide sustenance.  No allegiances.
