Do you have anything you do (or don't do?) as you prepare for an upcoming ABD?
I find myself breaking everything down into little segments. Waiting for The Box to arrive. Contacting bank, phone company, etc., to let them know I'm traveling if we're going out of the country. Making sure I have the right electrical adaptors (if we're traveling outside the US to a place with different plugs). And making sure I have enough cash to tip the guides at the end.
And THEN I read the boards here, the ABD website, and count the days...
But maybe someone has better pre-trip rituals? Anyone want to share?
