back to the beginning.

I'm back here again, and I'm trying to remember how I fit everything into my two suitcases the first time around. I'm starting to suspect I must have defied some laws of physics. I'm usually the kind of person who starts packing days in advance...but lately I've been a little bit in denial about the fact that I'm actually leaving, so I made the unwise choice to put it off as long as possible. Now I need to get this tornado of clothing, toiletries, books, scarves, and Chilean Christmas presents (that's right, get excited) under control before 8 pm. WISH ME LUCK.
