T-minus 4 days
Holiday from work, sleeping in was still not an option. Too much to prepare both for my trip and for my OMGWTFBBQ!!! in #yyc T+2 days after launch. Rain, shine, with or without me 
A seasoned traveler, I ran through my checklist as packing ensued: Extra socks, check. Extra photo media card, check. Shuttle program pin, check. Water bottle, check. Sleep, negative. Got the propane all filled up (for the BBQ, not my spacecraft) with a few extra candles for the special event.
Still awaiting confirmation from NASA PAO on my media credentials for the Late Media Registration. Nervous.
