Packing again

Tonight I'm packing again.  I took one suitcase, the larger 29" bag, to my local UPS Store to check its weight.  It came in at 58 lbs.  Since 70 lbs per bag is my limit for business class, it should be no problem.  The only complication being my connections to and from ROC and JFK.  I think they had to be booked as economy class.  So I may have to pay just to check bags, and then they might come in overweight.  I guess that will just be the cost of doing business.  I'm trying to keep costs down for my employer.  That volcano in Iceland has destroyed travel plans like that glacier.

I'm also looking to slim down my carry-on bag.  (BTW, I learned that carry-on is a hyphenated word when it is a noun or adjective.)  I finalized my one-quart bag of liquids for carry-on.  I consolidated some toiletries and first aid items.  Maybe I'll only take one book with me instead of two.  My travel vest can probably carry some small items too.  Not sure what snacks to carry with me.  There's plenty of snacks in my checked bags.  I wonder what they'll give me for meals and snacks.

Back to carry-on; I know I need to pack my electronics in my carry-on.  I'm just wondering what to do with the charging cables and stuff.  I don't think thieves would care for a battery charger without the digital camera or a network cable.
