I just figured out that if I spent 10% of the time I do plotting travel, making checklists for packing, etc. and funnel that into getting some exercise, I’d probably not have the now 35 inch waist I do. So that said, between needing about 10 days worth of work clothes, 2 days worth of going out clothes, and any other crap I decide to take to keep myself entertained in the hotel room after work…I really need to remember to pack the uh, “gym” stuff. Ratty shorts and t-shirts, sneakers and comfy socks. Considering I’m shuttling between 3 different hotels over the course of the trip, including the side trip up to Seattle I’m wondering what would be better: wash the gym stuff after use in the bathroom or just hang it to dry and then pack it in a sealed bag so it doesn’t infest the rest of my stuff in the bag such that it smells like a dirty locker room?
I also need to scope out this whole laundry service in hotels. I’m sure I could cut the amount of stuff I would normally cram into a suitcase in half which would lighten the load. The weather in LA for the next couple weeks isn’t looking too promising so I’m not sure if I can do the usual method of reduction by packing lighter weight clothing. Oh well.
And say, what kind of lunatic starts planning and packing for a trip a week in advance??? This one apparently.
