Things to Do Before I Go

My first flight takes off in less than 21 hours. Unbelievable! Today I am spending the day at home taking care of last minute details. Here are the things I need to do. If I am forgetting something important please comment and let me know.

• Finish packing
• Go to Costco to get my Kashi bars
• Go to the gym, one last workout that will hopefully result in a 20 pound loss
• Try and learn a little more Swahili
• Clean a little bit so my husband isn't angry at me the whole time I am gone
• Pay my rent so my landlord isn't angry at me the whole time I am gone
• Stop at Allstate and insure my laptop and camera
• Drink lots and lots of water so that I am completely hydrated for the flight
• Have dinner with my husband
• Spend "quality time" with my husband
• Get about 4 hours of sleep, enough so that I can function but insufficient enough that I can sleep on the plane and get on Zanzibar time
• Start taking my Malarone, the malaria pill
• Set my alarm for 3:30 am
• Take one last shower before the trip
• Wave goodbye to Brooklyn
• Give my husband the biggest kiss ever before I leave him at the airport
• Cry
• Get on an airplane and try to keep busy for 28 hours
