Ok, I've gone through my stuff again and again and again, everynight right now.  I know I've got everything, but I also know I'll forget something, just like I always do.  I've got 14 incarnations of TBF mixes for my iPod, along with the mountain music.  I know I have to finish out another week of work, but I just can't seem to keep my mind on work... WHAT am I to do?  Festivarian

I hear ya - I'm a basket case at work this week.  Totally worthless. 

My method of coping is to pack and re-pack obsessively; which does not guaranty that I won't forget something.

Take your ticket and pack it safely away in something you know you won't forget, and have a witness too. The rest of the s@*t you can by along the way! Pirate

Yup.  This is what I'm doing too.  And dreaming about packing, and losing stuff, and forgetting stuff, and ditching people at the airport.

I also am having my typical pre-fest panic attacks and last-minute surprise emergencies that would drive most people to drink.  Oh wait...

Anyhoo, I'm glad to hear I'm not alone during this painful week of high anxiety. 

Next meltdown in 3......2.....1....NOW!

Details...yeah...I probably should remember the tickets.  I think I sent them to a vault in Switzerland for safe keeping, or was that just another in a long series of dreams?

my first year after all the posts about don't forget your ticket I was 150 miles from home and realized, yep I did it. added 300 miles to the trip that year. I still check 5-10 times while packing to make sure i know where it is.

Does this make me an OAF?  (Obsessed and anxious festrivarian).  I guess the antitode is a wristband and a campsite.  I just locked my ticket in my glovebox.  That helped.     Thumbs Up
