Disappointed in the Heroes Season Finale...

TV/ Movies/ Books

Yep, you heard it here first. The season finale of Heroes was WAY sub par. It's in question whether or not the show will return next season. I hope it does, and I hope it redeems itself, otherwise I might have to replace it.

Packing for NOLA

Objective: Pack the lightest bag ever.
Contents
1 Red Dress
1 Pair of Gamma Phi Beta soffee shorts
3 t-shirts
1 green skirt
1 pair of flip flops
1 Cowboy hat

That's it (aside from unmentionables and a toothbrush).
This list is inclusive of what I plan to wear on the plane (shorts, flip flops, t shirt and my hat).
I'll wear the same shorts back with a different t shirt.
The dress for going out and jazzfest, and the skirt and t shirt for Friday shopping.

I tell you ladies, it can be done. And for all you gentlemen out there with ladies... tell them to pack light, refer to me as an example.

Pet Peeve

Overpacking (keeping with the theme here)

If you have kids, I get it. But if you don't you really need to plan out your wardrobe and take as little as possible. It's unnecessary to have tons of clothing for a 3 day trip.
Anecdote: Once I was packing for a trip to Boston. I was determined to fit everything I needed in an overnight bag. I kept packing, unpacking, repacking, until finally my boyfriend was like "WE ARE DRIVING! You have an entire trunk and backseat! You can take as much as you want!". Moral of the story: Don't pack in front of your significant other. It'll just tick them off. :)

Weird Personal Fact
I love folding towels.
When I go to Annie's house I refold her towels. I love it that much. True story.
