Things I have:

• Earbuds that stay in my ears thanks to the little “noise isolating” part that goes into the ear canal. Thanks to palmer_kun for the info about these!
• 167 q-tips. Because there is apparently no such thing as a trial size pack, and I only needed three.
• A cold, or the flu, or something. I’m definitely sick, but I won’t go into gory details. Having stopped-up ears does not make platform interpreting easy.
• Internet access, because the guy told me I had to sign up when I checked in. It turns out I didn’t, I could have registered for a shorter period when I logged in, but he had already charged me for the full stay. Oh well, it’s $20 till tomorrow at noon.

Things I don’t have:

• Cold food - without an icebucket I have no way to keep my little yogurts cold. I suppose I could ask for a bucket from the hotel.
• Hot food - there used to be a microwave guests could use, but they did away with that. So I’m eating my Nutrisystem dinners straight out of the package, oh well.
• Six Oreos, because they came with the lunch the convention supplied to me, and I ate ‘em. Oops. That was a bunch of unnecessary calories.
• Information about my iPod, because the guy hasn’t gotten back to me yet. C’mon, get in touch so I can pay you and you can ship it!
