Normally I try to avoid heavy packing, but I decided I was allowed one box (the size copier paper comes in) of comforting and/or inspiring objects to take to Clarion West. The contents so far:

The Timetables of History
Dictionary of Theories
Dictionary of Science
Bullfinch's Mythology
Women of Classical Mythology
How Proust Can Change Your Life
Travels with Charley
Slouching Toward Bethlehem
My Anne Bonny action figure
Eustace, the bobblehead armadillo

And the box is only half full, so there's plenty of room for the squeak lobster and the squeak frog...once I unpack them from whichever box they're currently lurking in.
