You're going to miss me, right?

I don't know why I always end up packing at the last minute. I throw a bunch of stuff in a suitcase and then wonder when I get to my destination why I didn't think to bring a sweater.

*sigh*

Hurricane Tropical Storm Hurricane Ophelia looks like it may threaten North Carolina in the coming week. If you want to see a grown woman cry, tell her she might have to cut her vacation short to evacuate.

How do people plan vacations at all if they're going to worry that some tropical depression is going to send them running home once they get good and settled? Right now I'm trying not to think about it and am hoping that I can at least get a couple of days of relaxation. I'm also hoping that Bodie doesn't freak out when I drop her off at the pet hotel tomorrow. The poor thing will probably think I'm abandoning her. *sigh*

Posting will be sporadic over the next week - I don't know if I'll have access to internet from the house, but I'll be sending pictures through my cell phone and Flickr when appropriate....if I can get a signal.

One last little [ghetto] thing - you know how you transport food items via ferry when you know the only grocery store on the island is super-expensive? In your suitcase. Just fill it with soda and booze and you're good to go. It's like carrying Skittles in your coat pocket that you bought at CVS into a movie theater.
