I am the worst

missyishere

I procrastinate like it's my job. I am headed OOT tomorrow, and I haven't packed a thing. My wonderful toddler decided to throw tantrums all day, so minimal house work was also done.


Commence booze:30.

Packing gives me anxiety.

Me too @hilarityensued, which is probably why I put it off.

Make a list!

I tell myself it's best to pack at the last minute because I always end up having to pull random things out of the suitcase if I pack too early.

I make my packing lists during boring lab meetings, and then lose them.

You need to use Google Drive!!!

I DO use google drive.  I don't get to have a computer during lab meeting and it's awkward to sneak out my phone, though.   

I get that. The key is to transfer the list from paper to Drive immediately.

What kind of Lab Meeting? Are you a science person? Let's hijack Missy's packing thread.

Yes, Dad. I'll get right on that.

You know what's worse than packing? Unpacking.

I still wasn't unpacked from last weekend. OOPS!

Quit hijacking my thread, ya goddamn nerds.

Good point about transfering. And yes I am a scientist. You too? I manage a facility that makes proteins for computationalists. Because they are geniuses when it comes to designing cool stuff but don't know how to use a pipet.

YGPM so we don't stink up Missy's thread. Although wouldn't most computationalists just run a simulation and either assume it is right or shrug their shoulders and say "check it if you want"?

lol at the attempt to not threadjack Missy's thread. A for effort.

Did not try very hard.

Inevitably I don't unpack right away, and a day later wonder "where the fuck is my hairbrush/deodorant/phone charger?"

Then I unpack and say "oh".

This is me exactly. I still can't find my fucking tweezers from the Iowa trip though. @anustart probably stole them when she took my chapstick

Have you checked my wife's purse? She is a tweezer klepto. They belong in the bathroom cabinet. That's their spot. Always.

MH would say the same except with nail clippers instead of tweezers.

Yeah, same issue. KLEPTO!

Pack underwear. And a toothbrush. Do so now! I failed to pack either of these items for DH for our honeymoon... The two most important items, seriously!

Brush is ready.  I don't wear underwear.

Funny, Dh squirrels away nail clippers in every drawer in the house. He likes the kind that catch the nail trimmings, but the sound of him cutting his nails in the kitchen is just SO WRONG. vom.

::shudders at the idea of clipping nails sound::
