Parting Shots
Well, my packing is done, including a couple important items I tried to forget...like the tickets of course.
Amazingly enough, Liz and I were able to make it to the Nail Salon early enough this morning to avoid the rush and get our nails done. I opted for the much simpler (and cost effective) basic manicure and color. Liz went with a much fancier acrylic two tone set of nails. All went well within the salon and I was referred to as "Mam" my my manicurist. Only one other cis woman (I assume) gave me much of a side glance, not that I care. But seemingly I do.
Referring to the trip and the resulting workshop presentation at the Trans Ohio Symposium, we received these comments:

- For three years, I would have filled the Minnow by myself!
-
I use a spreadsheet to organize what I have to pack!"
- Lol, I'm sure you do :)
-
Yes, the usual 'fun' of packing luggage for attending an Event.
I know that 'fun' only too well. It takes me about half an hour to pack for a trip down to my mother's, but for flying to an Event, about an hour." - I am probably on the same schedule, not including "quiet time" to try to figure out ahead of time what I will forget! Like the tickets and reservation information! Thanks to all for the comments!
