1. How far ahead of time do you begin packing for a weekend trip? Goodness. When is the last time I took a weekend trip? A good long while, for sure. But I can say that packing, as with most things that require preparation, is worked out ahead of time mentally. I tend to go over things in my mind, maybe make lists, but do the actual physical preparations pretty last minute.
2. What was your most recent purchase of a six-pack? Another thing I haven't done in a good long while. Can't recall the last time I bought a six-pack of beer...and even when I buy soda I generally buy the 12-pack. Every couple of weeks I need another 12-pack of Super Chill cola.
3. What do you look for in a good everyday backpack? Good, sturdy straps and zippers. A dark, neutral color. There, set to go. Boring, but reliable. I guess that is me and my everyday backpack. 4. Among people you know, who’s the worst packrat? I know a few packrats. I think I have a sort of inclination towards it, but over the years I have learned to let things go quite well. DR is one of the worst packrats I know, but I think he is trying to reform :-)
5. How do you know when it’s time to pack it in each evening? When my eyes refuse to remain open any longer, I pack it in. Otherwise, I just go on watching tv or reading. I have to almost literally pass out before I can pack it in!
Hope you are all able to pack lots of fun and relaxation into your weekend! Don't forget to Fall Back on Sunday!

My grandmother was a packrat and it was hellish trying to clear out her house. The item that got the biggest laugh was a couple of packs of camera flashcubes. Yeah - never know when THOSE might come in handy!
Your answer to number 5 is very similar to mine! Twins again! :)
I misread "12-pack of Super Chill cola" and thought it was "Super Chili cola". Now I'm all hungry for chili. I need to add that to the signs I need to pack it in for the evening - when I'm seeing things! :)
Super Chill Cola? Sounds pretty cool...
Wa wa waaaa
My ex was one of the worst packrats I've ever met. He still has an entire room full of newspapers. So not safe.
Secret: Oh my :-) Yes, people who save just KNOW they are going to need these things someday!
Tara: haha! So we both have to pass out...or begin seeing signs of chili all around.
3GK: hee hee! What's cooler than being cool? Ice cold!
Churlita: Oh yuck. I never understand that and can only think of the fire hazard and all the creatures that'd love to nest there.
