Cheap thrills

Confession:

I'm not sure which I enjoy more- a camping trip or packing for a camping trip.

Packing in preparation to go camping is a type-A monster's dream.  

I make a list.

I alphabetize my list.

I chastise my husband for printing my list before I've added bullets.

I add bullets.

I reprint my list.

I find a marker with which I can properly check off packed camping supplies.

You get the idea...

Perhaps nearly as thrilling is receiving a new magazine in the mailbox the day before you're set to head off.  Must add it to the list!  ;)
