You know you are thinking about a trip a lot when you start dreaming about it. Not the normal dreams : walking along the Thames, seeing all of the wonderful art in the Louvre, eating yummy food etc. no these are crazy dreams.
I'm at the airport, checking my baggage. I've got my one bag which is pretty big. I place it on the scale and can't believe my eyes! It weights over 100 lbs. What the heck do I have in there that weighs that much? I start to do what people do when they have a bag over the weight limit, proceed to unpack right there. Now that is a sensible thing to do when you are a little bit over weight but double the weight... not really going to help. It was a Mary Poppin bag! 20 something pairs of shoes! I figure that I'll just dump all of the shoes. Plan. I ditch the shoes and re-weigh the bag. It now weighs 25 lbs...what were those shoes made of?
Obviously trying to figure out what shoes I'm going to take.
