been packing for the last few hours to head up north tomorrow for my sister's baby shower.
it's saturday but still lots of prep to do before then.
packing is such a long ordeal involving outfit checks so i don't overpack, which i inevitably do anyway.
sigh.
this trip is heavily skirt and dress laden strangely.
nite!

Which box goes in which room? We haven't seen the new house yet! Maybe we should mark them all "garage."
Malaria prophylaxis, bug spray, Advil, Pepto-Bismol, sun-block, Tums, anti-bacterial wash, deodorant, and more!
Packing for NYC. So glad to finally get rid of this unused plane ticket to f*cking Boston. So excited to meet up with some friends.
boy thought it was funny to stick me in the boot. I begged him to let me out but supposedly the mice get front seat on the way down :(
(as if I could just take a bathing suit...!) Tomorrow this will be full with all the trappings of real life. But for now, as far as I'm concerned, I'm just going for a swim....
I had trouble sending a package abroad from Iran mostly to do with the item of clothing enclosed. DHL, Amarex and TNT wouldn't send such items to the US and I didn't want to count on the regular mail.
As I was heading to India I thought I'd do it from there and although our hotel in Mumbai was very close to a DHL point, the price was silly dollar - outdoing the pack value by 3-times.
I then took the package to Goa and tried to do regular post - but the regular post requires special packaging - as shown in construction above.
The post office in Goa was a task, what with the slow service, rude locals who assumed that if you talk in the queue, you are not queuing. On the second attempt the guy behind the desk just left for the bank during the afternoon, leaving a massive queue. Third time lucky though, we got it sent off rather cheap and it took a week and a half.
i am awful. awful at it. i better improve in the next two days because i CANNOT bring all that crap to london. jamie would strangle me.

This is how I roll. There is a cake stand under the scarves and the yoga mat.

I do not do yoga.
The yoga mat is good for some situps and leg raises.
I admire some who do. I have a friend who helped me move another time who does a lot of yoga.
I saw her do three flights of stairs with boxes all day. Core strength. I was impressed.
I may be out of internet range until I figure out the new place.
Not really completely out. There is a McDonald's nearby. Free wifi with the dollar menu.
...sort of a test run, really. I'm packing for Steampunk Night tomorrow after work!
I am bringing those boots and the uniform to Mexico though, for reals!
Another up-close shot of the 3GS, powered off. Other than minimal wear on the metal band around the 3GS, it was pretty damn mint.
* These shots were dubbed a "re-packing" because they were taken in effor to sell my iPhone 3GS on Craigslist -- for an iPhone 4.
