And every time I think, "Next time I'll put those in first," but I never do.

There's this recurrent moment every time I pack to go somewhere: I put all my electronics into my suitcase, all my chargers, extra chargers, computer accessories, ipods, waterproof swim gear, then the books, magazines, travel itinerary, move on to accessories that are there for my comfort like plastic bags, foot cozies, travel candles, vitamin C lozenges, extra sunglasses, small purses, jewelry carrier, get the pared-down cosmetic bag, the maximum of shoes I'm allowing myself, look at the full-but-not-too-full bag, think smugly, "Hey, I'm packing reasonably lightly for once,"...

...and then remember, oh, yeah, clothes.
