so i'm off to Argentina tonight. all that packing and shopping is finally over and done. maybe now i can get some sleep... hopefully on the plane.

i tend to be an overpacker. my aim is to plan for any plausible situation and to then pack the corresponding clothes, shoes, medicine, snack, gadget, entertainment, toiletry item, etc. that may be required. this leaves me with a big pile of stuff to bring with me. that's why 2 am last night found me going through piles covering my entire bedroom trying to figure ut what i actually needed....

uh oh, gotta go. finish this when i get back?
