Friday 5 for November 5: Packing

La maleta de Robespierre / RobespierreĀ“s suitcase

Questions from the Friday 5 blog.

1. How far ahead of time do you begin packing for a weekend trip?

Usually the day or night before I leave. I only travel to one island usually, and I already have stuff there, so packing is minimal when it comes to clothes. Only additions are camera and laptop computer. Gotta have those.


2. What was your most recent purchase of a six-pack?

I've drastically cut down on buying anything in bottles or cans because of the bottle tax.

3. What do you look for in a good everyday backpack?

I don't own a backpack, and I don't like being near people with dirty backpacks.

4. Among people you know, who’s the worst packrat?

Myself.

5. How do you know when it’s time to pack it in each evening?

When I start cussing the computer when something goes wrong.
