I'm a professional

I travel for a living... it's what I do. So it goes without saying that I know how to pack a bag. But there is something about going on vacation that puts me in a packing panic. Which bikini? Do I bring all of them? To check or not to check the bag... One pair of pants or two? Dresses or skirts? Will I want to wear shorts? Should I pack for a workout? And then the granddaddy of all questions: What shoes to bring?! I know that all females (I won't judge if the males can too) can identify with this dilemma. How many shoes? Flat shoes and heels? Then you've got the functional heels and the sexy heels and for flats there are tennis shoes, sandals, flip flops and water shoes. And don't think that I couldn't go on! And as if my stress load was acne inducing enough (the dreaded vacation pimple!!- that will show up in all vacation pictures), I can hear my dad's voice in my head: "Be prepared!" Suddenly I pulling out wet gear and possible cold weather gear.. what if it's unexpectedly freezing? (Did I mention I'm going to Costa Rica, climate tropical?!)

But alas, I finally shut off the frantic female voice in my head telling me that it's OK to check three bags and I get down to business. One pair of pants (wear them on the plane), three bikinis, one pair of sexy heels, flip flops and one pair of flats (wear them on the plane). Oh, and one small jacket in case it gets cold (that's for you dad!). See how it's done? What did I tell you? I'm a professional!

(And there's even room to spare for Rischard's stuff!)
