This is my packing story for the day.

I will forget everything I will need. I will pack anything that is completely useless. I will be trapped in a foreign city/town/province/country with absolutely nothing I should want. Everything I own will be wet and or dirty by the second day. Things will begin to smell. I will lose any meager items that I managed to remember to pack. At least one, if not both, zippers on my suitcase will break at some point. Most likely, this will occur in an airport/ferry terminal/roadside and spill feminine hygeine products and underwear into a high-traffic public area. When I scramble to pick up said embarassing items, I will rip my pants. If I was to be so lucky as to remember to pack another pair of pants, I will hastily change. I will then just as hastily use my disaster homing beacon to find the single chair in a public area with chewing gum or chocolate pudding and sit on it. If flying, I will be selected for "random" extra security checks. If I've overpacked, there's no way I'm fitting everything back inside my bag once a fifty year old man has determined that my underwear don't have a bomb inside them. If I'm travelling on a ferry, I will lose something overboard. All of my electronic devices will break or need batteries within the first six hours of my trip. I will find that I am strangely allergic to something in my new environment and will sneeze uncontrollably for a least 24hrs straight. Whoever I am travelling with will get sick, have an unfortunate accident, or cancel. Death is also probable. I may forget my passport. If not my passport, my wallet. If not my wallet, my keys. If not keys, my music. If not music, my suitcase. Seriously, it happened.

So, I'm starting a packing list. It probably won't be interesting to you unless you have a really dull life...but ya know...whatever floats your boat.
