tj_teejayI hate packing. With a passion!!! The suitcase is always too small. And the decisions what to take kill me every time. And I always take too much. But if I pack light, I'm always paranoid I don't have enough to wear. It's a vicious cycle. I just hate it.
I wanted to leave work early today. I really did. Didn't happen, though. Not by a long shot. It was 6:30 when I finally shut down the computer. There must have been some big accident/fire/cluster fuck on the way, because when I passed the first roundabout (I have three on the way), there were masses of fire trucks and/or ambulances with angry, blinking blue lights blocking the road. I forthwith turned the car around and took the long way round.
Finally home, it still took me until 9 PM to even start packing. So now it's 11:30 and I should be in bed. But now I'm all riled up and disheveled and... gaaaaah!! The taxi comes at 7:30 AM tomorrow. And I want to download the White Collar ep from tonight before I leave. Which means getting up around 6 AM or something equally uncool. I really should go to bed. Someone please kick me in the shins. Hard.
So, uhm, breathe. I just need to sit still for 10 seconds and breathe. And stop being paranoid about having forgotten to pack something vitally important. And just look forward to having a good time with the colleagues. *nods sanguinely* Yeah, okay, maybe I can do that.
See you on the other side of the pond, then. (Or tomorrow morning when I seek out Forging Bonds.)
