Buggering Off

So, a friend’s friend called her up and said, “I’m moving to Florida.” The natural response was, “When?” So the cat says, “Er, tomorrow.”

That got me thinking a little bit. If the time came to make a move and you had, say, 30 minutes to get ready and maybe a regulation duffle bag and your pockets for luggage what would you take along?

My usual kit would come along:

Zippo
Pocketknife
1973 50 pence piece
Pen and small notebook
Wallet/money
Keys
Kerchief

That all fits in the pockets, though. Now on to the real packing:

iPod & charger & headphones
Two changes of outer clothing
Three changes of under clothing
Jacket
Red Sox cap
Swiss Family Robinson
As many Transmetropolitan issues as I can fit in the sack
A flask of bourbon

I’m sure I’ll think of others but that ought to get me at least to Iowa.
