I am still absolutely unprepared for Peru. I had planned on packing and purchasing this weekend. Did I do either? No. Actually, I did buy a couple of novels to read on the plane (Incas: In the Shadow of the Puma and Incas: The Gold of Cuzco). I'm a little worried about the trip, because we just had a little more evidence about our tour companies lack of organization present itself this week. But I am sure everything will work itself out.

I went to the bridal shower on Friday night. Yesterday, G&J, Sarah and I went to the Museum of Natural History because (coincidently?) they were having a summer exhibit on Machu Picchu. This was followed by a quick run home to pick up Cari (who has arrived safely back from France, Greece, Italy, Germany, wherever...) and off to Jo's birthday party. Hamburgers, volleyball, and swimming (well, not so much for me) later, I went home and crashed.

Now, the busy week. I have a sim from 2 - 9 p.m. tonight; tomorrow class starts, keeping me at Rice until late; Wednesday is sailing; Thursday is class again; Friday afternoon, off to Peru! Somewhere in there, I'm hoping to go on a shopping spree for the bare minimum of the following things: some medicines (pepto, advil, sudafed), a new pair of zip off pants, iodine tablets, granola/power bars, teva sandals. Then I just need to do laundry and pack and I'll be ready to go.
