Packing, yesterday, and Breakfast

There are never enough hours in the day. I have to pack at some point but I just can't bring myself to limit that which I will be able to use for six weeks. It is suddenly such a long time. I also don't want to pack too much because I don't want to have to haul it. I so hate packing. I also keep coming up with things that I think I need that I don't have and so I think I have gone shopping more in the last month than I have in the past three years.

Oh! because blogger was doing weird things yesterday I did not get to post the crazy jean quote of the day

Here it is.

Mom: What is that on the wall, a fly?
Me: Yeah, a horsefly.
Mom: Horsefly? That's a frickin' Clydesdale!

That was pretty much my day Yesterday.

This morning I realized that the way that i make my cereal is a prelude to the day that I will have. For example, I go up to the office for breakfast. I get out a bowl and some cereal. I look for the milk. It is sour. If I realize that it is sour before I pour it my day will only suck a little bit. If I pour the sour milk into the bowl before I pour the cereal in, the day will suck. If I pour sour milk over good cereal, my day will really suck. If, when I realize that the milk is sour, there is a non-sour container of milk, the day will be ok. But if I pour the non-sour milk into the bowl befor the cereal, the day will be really busy. If there is no other milk, I will have a crappy but passable day. In the rare event that I eat cereal and the milk is not sour, I will have a really great day. Today will be really busy.
