Re-packing AGAIN

Seriously, I need to learn to pay attention. Crammed everything I am taking with me into one bag and that is only because I have vacuum seal clothing bags (woot, those are rad). Then mom-in-law casually mentions last night "You know you can check two bags."
Well that was a "duhh" moment. So I get to split everything into two bags now, leaving room for cheesy viking souvenirs and t-shirts for everybody :D

Three and a half days til lift off

Getting so excited now. Just need to pack my carry on stuff which basically is a book, some music and my papers.
Got my new drivers license already (thank you california dmv, you all rock) so I am all good to go. Now just for keeping myself busy. I forsee lots of playing Crackdown and lego something or other...maybe a little black ops too. Surprised myself at how decently I performed last time we played, which was a while as the network was down. Kind of felt like my playing skills were like my spaghetti sauce, you kind of have to let it sitt for a bit and then it just kicks ass. Give it time to meld and be assimulated in the great Borg of spaghetti sauce. Yeah so my gamer skills are like spaghetti sauce...


Been looking at stuff i wanna see in Iceland, museums, galleries, the national library (an absolute have to for a future librarian). Have to go see the Pearl Nd then Harpan, and of course downtown. Need to review my list of things to see and probably try and make a plan. Got my walking shoes all prepped as those shoes were meant for walking, and thats just what they'll do. One of these days those are going to walk all over Reykjavik. YES I HAVE A CORNY SENSE OF HUMOR...but it entertains the shit out of me. I think I may have made my hubby cry with my bad puns once or twice. Love you baby muah.

If anyone has any suggestions for a great place to see in Reykjavik or there abouts, feel free to leave a comment. I would appreciate any input :)

Getting ready

It is almost time. Only the weekend and two days hah!

can't wait to get my camera loaded up with a bunch of bad pictures by me. Dont worry tho, i have a gorilla pod so they will be extra bad as I will try my best to put the camera at obscene angles and in weird places..or as per usual.
Probably ought to start a bad photography website, hm, could make some good money with that i think XD






checking that the camera works....yep it works.






Yes this is a picture of some mundane travel crap....but it's MY mundane travel crap.






Some of the crap i am taking.






And more crap i am taking, minus the vaccume cleaner.






Packed everything, then realized I have no room for souvenirs...re-packing :/
