Spence has traveled extensively and is the world’s lightest packer.  He is a huge procrastinator about it, last minute – even for trips that lasted months.  Let’s say it’s been a point of contention with us over our years together.

He’s currently visiting his best friend Nick in Ft Lauderdale, having packed about five minutes before we left for the airport. Now that I’m retired, meditating daily, doing yoga (quite “zen”, you get it) I’ve adopted the attitude “don’t fight it.”  Live and let live. And accept that my guy, now 71, isn’t likely to change and truth be told, I wouldn’t want him to.

So when he called me from Nick’s and told me that he’d opened his bag to get out his flip-flops only to find that he’d packed two left ones.  After I quit laughing, I went up to find the mates to document his flip-flop faux pas.
