the gauntlet of my fortitude

Fall, vile cretins of substantiated procrastination!!!

...

Thigh pack #1:
toothbrush
toothpaste
hair trimmer
Lotion
contact case & solution
condoms
deodorant
chapstick

#2:
First Aid kit

pack:
laptop & charger
AA batteries + charger
water , few cans of food
clothes

sleeping bag.


And that would be about it. plus the 100lb vest. simple as possible. save some money, and use that for food, occasional lodging. ain't gonna take me that long to foot it from coast to coast.


I want to replace my trimmer (ooo 10$) and batteries/charger (00000h 10$). dish out for the sleeping bag, and get a smallish pack. i mean, clothes aren't important. i'll have extra undershirts n underwear, water proof pants n jacket for when its rainy. super pants. and socks, can't forget socks.

Use clean clothes as pillow, dirty ones under the feet for slight elevation (good for the knees). I wonder if i could incorporate the extra clothes into the pants actually, that would be helpful. Distribute weight so i don't have a huge pack.

really, the only things i want in the pack is the electronics, then the food.


hrmmm. to teh doodley pad.


PS: So a lady came in, a one named tammy, who worked at a local cafe. When i met her i told her my little story (how i travel around, see and learn all sorts of different things etc etc). it seems i inspired little lady to do the same; she's sold all her stuff except what she needs and is setting off on adventure!

Interesting. it burdens me slightly to see someone able to do so in such a ready fashion; whereas im losing my job etc and am since thusly delayed. "in a few weeks" "in a few months" "in a few goddam fucking moments".

whatever.
