T-minus one day

I think every electronic device I own is charging right now. That's not saying much, since I unfortunately have realized I am a late adapter when it comes to techy gadgets.

this impending trip gave me the GREAT ability to rationalize many a purchase....
- New bathing suits
- Though that also meant bathing suit cover-ups
- Workout tank tops that I likely neither need nor will wear...
- Too many sunglasses. Even though, yes, Jeff, I already own 4 pairs
- iPad. I figured it would make me look like a cool, adventurous, fun grad student. I realized too late that it will definitely take more than an iPad...
- Neon-colored pouches and mini purses to hold random things that may need holding. Hoping neon doesn't go out of style in the next three months
- Every flavor of Clif bars that isnt made with nuts
- Multiple types of bug spray. REI even sells wrist bands that keep bugs away

This list made it a little difficult to get everything in my suitcase!
