Adam packing for a trip vs. Me packing for a trip

I was struck funny last night after watching Adam pack for his first 5 day trip to Arizona to visit Maryann. The difference between how he packs for five days and how I pack for five days is pretty much comical, so I had to share it with you.

Packing for the Plane
Me - Cram everything I can into a blue shoulder bag - CD player with multiple cds(you never know what mood I will be in) DVD player with multiple DVDs (again, you never know what I'll be in the mood for), 2 pairs of headphones (one that goes in my ear canal and another for when that pair starts to bother my ears). My wallet, 2 packs of tissues, 2 chapsticks (in case I lose one), at least 4 pens, 2 wordsearch books, 1 Sodkou book, 1 Math Logic Book, 2 books to read (again, depends on what mood I'm in for what I read), extra batteries (can't be without music), gum, candy, and some sort of snack that I can cram into a corner that will (no doubt) get flattened.

Adam - one book that he carried on the plane with him in his hand

yup, that's it, and I even tried to find the longest way to write it to make it look longer!

Packing in the Suitcase
Me - essential garments for all days of travel plus 2 days extra (just in case something happens, I am prepared), enough outfits for everyday plus 2 extras in case I decide I don't like what I am wearing, 2 pairs of pjs (in case I feel like rotating them), Usually a minimum of 2-3 pairs of shoes, an extra book (to switch with one from the plane if I actually read them), all my hair care products including shampoo, conditioner, etc.. (not like Maryann doesn't have some I can borrow) - usually my suitcase just barely zips shut

Adam - (keep in my this is the exact same suitcase!) essential garments for the exact number of days of travel, a couple pairs of pants, a couple of shirt, comb, toothbrush, shaver, 1 set of pjs, and the clothes on his back ---the suitcase ---hardly half full.

My Conclusions
1. Guys have travel life SO much easier than girls
2. I am more of a girly, girly then I give my self credit for. Seriously - I am pathetic!
3. When I pack to go to Arizona in January, my suitcase will probably be as full as ever so.....
4. I guess I didn't learn a lesson from this, unless it's just to laugh at myself.
