It's been a while since I traveled for my job. I've been working a lot more on environmental issues lately, so there hasn't been the need. Then this great opportunity came up with a top-tier national publication for a "green" photo shoot, so I'm hitting the road.
First stop, Nashville, TN. Next up, Richmond, VA. I thought, if I'm going to be that close, I have to go to KY, so I'm flying home Thursday night. Yay! I'm very excited to see my family and friends.
I'm NOT excited about the weather, particularly the humidity. It's supposed to be 96 when I arrive in Nashville (with 96% humidity also, I'm sure). Richmond is supposed to hit 101+ next week - UGH. At least Lexington will just be nice and balmy with isolated T-storms in the upper 80s. Ick.
Everyone knows I'm a packer and a planner. I've been so worried about all the work details that I haven't even begun my personal packing. I guess I'll do that tomorrow! Here's my list:
- Deodorant
- Clothes made of gauze to prevent excessive "I've lived in San Francisco too long" sweating
- Umbrella
- Camera to take pictures of me wearing safety shoes, work glasses and orange vest (not a joke)
- Hair rubberband to pull back my hair the second I leave the hotel
- Magazine to read on the plane and fan myself with at all stops
- Mapquest directions to Wal-Mart because I need to pick up stuff when I get there
I think that should just about cover it. Any other ideas?
P.S. I may not have a chance to write until I get home on Fathers' Day.
