Hyperventilating

I have always been hyper-sensitive, hyper-active, hyper-tense, hyper-everything (even hyperbolic sometimes). Some of my ex-colleagues used to call me over-enthu or enthu-cutlet and not always kindly. I have to plan and plan and plan till my brains are oozing out of my ears.

So while I look forward to my little relaxing vacation in Goa, I am going hyper with the thought of the packing and preparations. Chrys says that we'll hardly take 15 minutes to pack. I KNOW he is right but I still have to fret over what to take and whether we would forget our tickets or swim-suits or sunscreen or some random thing that could easily be bought in Goa. I have even made a list that has over 20 items in it including items like soap and toothpaste (with a question mark after them) although that will be provided by the resort we are staying in. The unexpected relapse I have had of my slipped disc pain has stopped me from actually packing all the stuff two weeks before our trip. I know I will drive Chrys mad now that we have only six days left to the big trip.

I don't think I know anyone else who gets so worked up over a relaxing vacation. After all this I really do need to unwind.
