My travel kit
I travel quite a bit. This means I’ve often experienced a particularly geeky form of pain: the frustration of missing that one cable or power adaptor I really need. This has happened to me enough times that over the years I’ve grown into something of tech readiness geek. My travel kit now has all sorts of adaptors and cables; I thought it’d be amusing to dump out my travel bag and actually enumerate all this crap.
