yes, West. I think I am just resigned to packing my big ass coat. I hope that it one outfit and toilitries will allow for enough room for my laptop bag to fit in teh suitcase. I don't want to have to negotiate two bags tomorrow if I don't have to.

msbelle, I would suggest layers, and maybe carry your winter coat on the plane.

Ooh! You should do what the girl in Indiana Jone's class did and paint your message of love on your eyelids. And then blink a lot.

I sit in the back row. They'd have to be really big letters.

I hate the whole big coat thing. Since most of the time I'm flying to warmer climes, I resign myself to freezing my ass off at the airport and parking lot here. When I've had to haul along Gargantua (the winter coat ) I hand it off to the first airline attendent I see. The thing is half the size of me and barely compresses to carryon size.

tights, slacks, turtleneck, jacket, big coat, gloves. I figure we won't be outside for too long. I am actually more worried about wearing too much in the morning and being hot in the afternoon than being cold. I hate being hot and having to work. Now to pack.

packing done. guess who left all the files she needs digitally at work? So do I get dressed and go in to work now or do I get up at 5am and do it then?

Aw, Msbelle. I would do it now, so I can go off to sleep and not be obsessing.

Me too.

I third.

I hate everything.
