California has always done weird shit, that's nothing new, but one would think if you're speaking to someone who lives there, and they're telling you what they see with their own eyes,

To be fair, I often see shit in this state that I don't believe.
 
Explain to me why it takes women so long to pack for a trip. My wife starts packing a minimum of four days before we go anywhere and still always forgets something. I start packing about 30 minutes before we leave and rarely forget anything. What takes you guys so long?

lol

Seriously. I have an athletic bag that I use that is small enough to carry onto the plane.

If it doesn't fit in there...I don't need it.
 
Cancel your trip. Problem solved.

You're welcome.

Hahahaha ...

That reminds of the time years ago, back when my mama was still alive, she and her husband had come out to visit, we were out at a beach and this guy with really long hair, a really long beard, a staff with all kinds of crystals and weird shit hanging off it, who looked like he hadn't bathed in quite a while walked by.
My step-father made the perfect comment.

He's heading back to the mothership. :biggrin:
 
Not true. She packs for herself and the youngest daughter. The middle one packs for herself. The oldest one does as well if she’s coming. If I forget something, I either buy it at the destination or do without.
That's what I usually end up saying an hour before I'm headed to the airport when i'm doing my "WTF ELSE DID I FORGET" dash around the house. i am an absolute over-packer and it's so damn annoying.

Back in the late '90's I lived in Hollywood within walking distance from Hollywood Blvd, Graumans Chinese Theater etc.,

There was a little bistro type restaurant where I used to like to go sometimes, get an outside table, have a couple of beers and people watch.

Saw some very entertaining folks. lol

Oh, I bet I could make you feel better about being an over-packer.

Packing for a trip is one of those things I get beyond meticulous about.
It isn't just that my list must have every single thing on it, and by day (like yours), but I can't have anything extra, and it must all be placed in the baggage just so.
Like, I'd be one of those people who, if I went through TSA and they went through my luggage, anyone taking a video could zoom in on my eyes and you could tell my world was just collapsing on itself. Then there would be more video of me over on the side repacking every item just so.
Talk about fucking annoying.

Yeah, like I said... the list here is nowhere near complete :L I really try... I haven't gotten the big suitcase out of storage yet. I'm really, really, really wanting to fit everything in the carry on. Every time I travel, I always come back with tons of clean laundry. Friggin' annoying as hell. This trip should be especially minimal, as I plan to do nothing but lounge around for 80% of the time.

I recommend starting with the financial aspects; see that everything you need to do financially is locked down first.

Comb and hair brush? They should have a dryer in the room.

Ugh! Why didn't you remind me of this earlier?! I forgot to do my timecard again. Won't get paid this week :sigh:

If you've got the money honey, I've got the time.
 
Might work out in my favor though... I won't have any (or very little) overtime this week and next, so I may not get pushed to the next tax level.

Probably not. Probably put me $1 above the limit and I'll be butt raped with taxes, as usual. :sigh:
