3 Things Make a Post

miss_lucy211) I have discovered I probably have close to 40 hours of television on the DVR to watch. Don't ask me when exactly I plan on watching all this television- if I was smart, I'd be watching something now off the DVR while no one else is home, but there's a big baseball game for my team on tonight, so I'm watching that, because I won't see the rest of the series.
2) I won't see the rest of the series because I'm heading out on a business trip again tomorrow. I really need to ask my boss exactly how much traveling I'm going to be doing. I like the traveling, and I know it's kind of a big deal that I'm getting to travel in my position, but if it's going to be more than the very occasional trip, I'm gonna have to invest in some better travel gear. I have one gigantic suitcase (suitable for a 10 day trip), a medium size suitcase that I can borrow from my parents that's just slightly too big to be carryon size. I think it's actually sold as a carryon size, but in practice, it's really not. Particularly not for me, since I can't actually lift it over my head to go into a bin if it's full. Since this is just an overnight trip (I leave very early tomorrow morning, I come back Thursday night), I'm reduced to using my (brightish pink) gym bag. Which is roomy and plenty big enough for an overnight trip (I routinely put a full change of clothes + shoes in it, because I'm either going swimming on my way to work or going running after work), but doesn't exactly scream "professional business traveler". Plus, if I'm using the gym bag, I need to use a backpack as my other carryon, because I can't manage two shoulder bags. My backpack is decent, and definitely functional, but it's kind of beat up.
3) I have found a use for "shaping" camis. They're great when you've pulled an abdominal muscle, either by over enthusiastic nose blowing or coughing. I'm not sure how I did it. I woke up in the middle of the night the other day with it screaming at me, so chances are I tweaked it somehow during the day and then moved in such a way in my sleep that pulled it all the rest of the way. I'm also thinking, now that I've bought it, that they may also be good for the kinds of sensory crazy days I have where I'm just buzzy and the only thing that really slows me down is crawling under a bunch of heavy blankets. The pressure might be good for that.
