Vacation Summation In Lists

Things I brought on my vacation and did not need:

• Makeup -- I don't wear it when at home, why did I think I would wear it on vacation?
• Notebook -- I had many interesting dreams, but do you think I recorded any of them?
• Dressier clothes -- We didn't make it to church, but even if we had, this was Homer: my jeans and hoodie would have done nicely as long as they were clean.
• Extra jewelry -- See above re: Homer.
• Camera battery charger -- There's a reason I have three batteries.
• Extra film -- There wasn't enough sunshine to use my Lomo Actionsampler.
• Yellow halter -- Ditto on the sunshine, and my mother would have had a heart attack seeing me in it.
• Bicycle and helmet -- The weather and my sinus cavity teamed up against me, and I ended up only riding once the entire time.

Things I could have used but didn't pack:

• Enough dog food.
• Sinus pressure and congestion medicine.
