beccaelizabethMy usual packing technique proceeds apace. Everything I might possibly want to wear is in a big heap in the giant suitcase, except for the parts I found still in the suitcase from last time, which are in the washing machine. And the big red robe I thought might be a bit Sycorax, which isn't in the washing machine because I remembered it about five minutes after pressing the button. I'm not wearing several years of dust with my costume, so it stays home.
Now I will have a sit down, and next I will... remember to put more socks in, drat, I knew I'd forgotten something... and then start the process of pulling everything out, folding it, counting how many weeks I could live out of that suitcase, putting things to one side that there's no possibility of me wearing, putting things to one side that do not, on reflection, actually fit any more, and seeing if what's left is sufficient.
I don't know how I'll manage my usual good coat. I could wear it, and be a bit cold on the way there and back. Or wear it under the wool blanket thingy, and probably still be cold while looking silly. Or I could attempt to pack it, only I'd need to put it in a bag or something first and it's always hard enough fitting everything in the case anyway. I'll probably end up wearing it, cold, and wearing all my cardigans at once. And hoping not to get rained on.
I haven't thought of any good costumes, so the packing is somewhat random. If it's shiny and sparkly I threw it in the case. That probably explains why there's three suitcase heights of clothes in there.
I might be actually managing to get excited about the weekend. Yaays.
