The Packing List

Ok, anal E made up a nice spreadsheet of all he needed to take along with him on his trip. Although he is very detail oriented he is still a man. The clothing items for a month included:

• 4 pair of underwear
• 2 T-shirts
• 2 pair shorts
• 2 pair dockers
• 3 - 4 button up shirts
• 4 pair socks

Thankfully, he took more socks and underwear than regular clothes. I realize he has laundry service but I'm glad I'm not a man and have to wear the same pants and button up shirts every other or every third day. He took more office related things than clothing items. He also only packed one small suitcase to carry-on (none for check-in) and his laptop bag. Amazing. I think I'd pack 3 suitcases.

He is now safely landed on a layover in Minneapolis. He called huffing and puffing to his next gate at the opposite end of the airport. I'm going to go take a nap now as he woke me at 2 am this morning frantically searching for his passport. A couple hours of searching, a ton of praying, a few Oh s**t thoughts, and some clear-headed retracing of his steps found the passport nicely stashed in one of his jackets. Thank God. Would have really put a wrench in the whole day.
