Adapters? Converters? And more importantly, will there be enough Dexter?

Well today made me feel a bit better. Nothing is packed or organized, but my jeans are bought, my adapter and converter are bought, and the jeans are actually washed. I put them in the washer when I was watching Dexter. Because apparently I do nothing else.

The evening was topped off with a trip to Barnes and Noble where I bought, you guessed it, Dexter novels. Because apparently I have a fascination with serial killers. My only worry is that I will finish all three with time to spare and will be bored on the plane.

So about this adapter converter issue. Do I really need both???? The adapter says it is good for computers, but not small electronics. The converter says it is good for small electronics, but not computers. Can you please explain to me why no one can put them both in one little contraption that actually works? Brookstone had one combination, but the reviews of it online were terrible. Apparently they all broke after one week. So alas, I had to purchase both and spend an outrageous amount of money.

Everything (besides the packing) is falling into place. I arranged for my transportation to the college from the airport, and have been in contact with a student over there. I signed up for a buddy program they have there. Basically is it so that I don't have to figure everything out on my own. So my buddy's name is Aedie and she seems fairly awesome. Only time will tell.

Hopefully she won't be creeped out that I spend all my time watching/reading about serial killers.
