An Out Of Town Thursday Thirteen
Well, a last minute change in plans puts me in Fort Bragg this weekend instead of home since Joe is working Saturday. So in honor of this rush to head out of town, I'm going to write the
THIRTEEN THINGS I ALWAYS HAVE TO DO BEFORE LEAVING TOWN
1. Laundry
Before packing, I always have to do laundry. Someday I hope to have enough clothes to pack for three days WITHOUT doing laundry.
2. Dishes
Usually a sink full. Can't leave 'em.
3. Find Someone to Check On The Dogs
Especially since I have psycho dog and wussy puppy.
4. Take Back Movies
Usually, I have to go out of town right after I've rented movies. Sooooo, I have to take them back or I forget I have to return them.
5. Print Out My WIP
I usually print out the last ten pages or so of my work in progress so that I can write while I'm gone. Yeah, keep laughing.
6. Last Minute Errands
This often begins with the Redneck saying "Since you're coming down, could you pick up......" *rolls eyes*
7. Cancel Appointments
These out of town trips usually coincide with appointments that I made when Joe was going to be HOME for the weekend.
8. Pack
Those of you with children know that this includes a friggin pharmacy, a week's worth of clothes (even for three days) and then there's MY stuff.
9. Gas Up
Why am I always on empty when it's time to leave? The world may never know.
10. Pack the Car with drinks and snacks
With my children, this is necessary even for a two hour drive.
11. Pick The CDs
Hugely important for road trips.
12. Remember The Cell Phone
About the time I remember this, I've started the engine.
13. Ignore the Other Things Forgotten
Hitting the freeway, I usually remember some really important that I refuse to go back for. I hunch over the wheel and keep driving with Evanescence blaring in the car.
So, I'll be back Sunday. I'll miss you. I'll try and get online while I'm gone. If you really miss me, you can head over to
Coffee Time Romance
On August 3rd.
A bunch of The Novelty Girls will be there and I'll try and poke in from the wilds of Fort Bragg, California.
