    stuff

    I have intentionally left a few things out, but here is the rest:

    Toiletries:
    anti-bacterial soap
    Dr. Bronner's Peppermint soap
    shampoo (never enough in a hotel)
    toothbrush
    Crest Sensitive toothpaste
    toothbrush cover
    a few disposable rags
    deoderant
    4-6 earplugs
    1 tin burt's bees lemon butter cuticle cream
    rubbing alcohol (in a trial size hairspray bottle)
    1 package wipees (handy after melted protein bars or fruit)
    extra ziplock bags
    a few cotton rounds
    sunscreen, although I didn't use it last year either
    hair brush
    comb
    hair bands for ponytail, if hair is not cut too short by then
    appropriate medications (both regular and "in case")

    Food:
    Most items will be bought in vegas, but I will import some of the less likely to find items.

    1 box Balance yogurt honey peanut protein bars
    1 box Balance almond brownie protein bars (the only uncoated variety, for less melting)
    possibly boxed hummus
    1-2 boxes of my favourite !chicken patties, frozen
    ice pack for spoilable food
    spelt bread
    vegannaise
    sriracha sauce
    possibly hot !dogs
    1 full bottle of water, 1 empty

    Technology (pretty fuzzy on this stuff):
    laptops
    large amounts of cables/adapters
    appropriate emergency software
    digicam
    batteries
    mp3s
    cellphone (to be obtained)

    Clothing:
    Lots of underwear
    birkenstocks (worn)
    3 pairs of shorts, if I have that many (one worn)
    1 dress (possible)
    1 skirt
    possibly 1 nice shirt
    1 t-shirt (worn)
    possibly 1 pair of boots -- extreme bulk
    appropriate socks for the boots, if taken

    Miscellaneous:
    Appropriate listings and maps of locations I may want to find, such as vegetarian restaraunts.
    Phone numbers
    Notebook, nice continuity... it still has notes from DCX in it
    Pens
    Dual tip sharpie

            never thought about that... great idea.. I have seen what happens to "random" cell phones found laying around....
            If I had a nickle for every time someone offered me ten cents to keep my two cents to myself... I would be a rich man.

                    There are cable sets for certain phones. Mine will also be prepaid as I do not ordinarily need a cellphone and do not wish to sign a contract.

                          lots and lots of socks. I find a fresh pair of socks to be very refrshing in the vegas heat.

                            Birkenstocks fix that.

                                Certain ones can. The hint is that Virgin is really just Sprint PCS.
