*ack*

The last two days have flown. Clothes to be packed all laundered and laid out. New, smaller laptop bag bought. Lucky for me, I bought an airplane adapter for the MacBook. Packed that, along with an ethernet cable, digital camera, and the little USB card reader thingie. Please let me remember the iPod charger, the phone charger, the laptop charger (the airplane adapter can power the MacBook, but it doesn't charge the battery), and all the other electronic frewfooraw. I'm sure there's an Apple Store in the Big Apple just jam-packed with neat stuff, but I really don't want to have to go there.

Clothes are easy compared to electronic stuff.

Shoes! Bought heel thingies and comfort inserts for the boots, which are comfortable enough but could use a little boost. Trouser socks.

I still need to make up a list of puppy meds and feeding schedule for the caregiver.

Any other time, I'd be at that stage of trip prep where I'd be wondering if it was worth all the trouble, and wouldn't I rather stay home? Except that I don't this time. I really am looking forward to the break.

Constantine

Just watched Constantine. Well, most of it--missed the first hour because of Countdown, but caught the rest.

What a wonderfully whacked film. I remember Keanu Reeves receiving poor reviews, but I thought he was fine. Ok, he's a rangy brunet, so I'm biased, but I still thought he was fine. Tilda Swinton's Gabriel was riveting. Peter Stormare's Satan. I want to rent it to see what I missed.
