I don’t feel much older than last year, but there is a distinctive sense that comes with the big four-oh.
I awoke earlier than expected. After lazing in bed for a bit I decided that I would take advantage of the early start. I drove to the Treasure Hunt store, stopping by Starbucks for my free birthday treat along the way.
I ordered the Tomato Mozzarella Panini. I had gotten in the driveway and then realized I had mistakenly hit “in-store pickup,” so I had to maneuver out of the line and find a parking space.
Once I got inside, it was incredibly loud. The seats were packed with customers and the space behind the counter was abuzz with activity.
The pickup didn’t take long at all. I was soon back outside and walking to me waiting car. Upon my first bite of the sandwich, the spinach sort of flopped out. It was wet and soggy and sort of bland. The rest of the meal tasted good though. I paired the sandwich with a pear and that was my breakfast.
I stood in line at the Treasure for around 10 minutes before they opened the doors and everyone began filing in. I had brought my own bag, so I didn’t bother grabbing one of the big blue ones the store provides.
I went straight to the clothes bin and got some nice picks.

There were two items I picked out too hastily and didn’t notice large stains and other damage. Not a big loss, just 2 bucks.
I think maybe they were short staffed because the manager was running the register and he’s usually at the back counter on the PA system the other times I’ve gone inside.
Oh, and I picked up two sealed bags with Microfiber Golf Towels. Also a nice find.
