The Clock is Ticking

Just a couple of days to go now. I am basically posting this as a matter of course, since the last post was almost 2 weeks ago. Jen has been a huge help so far by starting a hand written list of things I might need to bring. Additionally, I printed out a pre-fab list from Microsoft, titled "World Traveler's something or other." This is sure to help me tackle my packing woes, which I'll need to do since corner stores and Wal-Marts are likely to be scarce in third-world nations. Micah offered up a helpful suggestion about making sure I carry protection. Anybody else?
