Packing

I would like to take a moment to contrast our different packing styles.  I'll use the electronics packing as an example:


In this image , Cindy has packed her USB power adapters and USB cables.  As we know, these power adapters and cables are completely interchangeable.  Any of the plugs will work with any of the cables.  Despite this, Cindy has meticulously labeled each "pair"  and is very adamant about keeping those "pairs" together.  The Altoids tin neatly holds her iPod and earbuds.  Now some would say she is very organized and some might say she is a bit obsessive.   (Not me though, let me make that clear.  No way, not even a bit, uh uh.  I would never say such a thing.  Never.  Never. Ever. )


Please contrast this with my style.  I will admit it takes me a half hour to untangle my cables when I want to use them but does it really matter if the time spent is on the front end or the back end?  Actually what I usually do is use Cindy's cables and when I'm done I innocently switch the labels.

I haven't started packing anything yet.  I don't have that many clothes, and if I pack too soon I'll have nothing to wear all week.  I'll run a load of clothes on Monday afternoon and be ready to pack on Monday night.
