Minimalist Packing List

I'm making my packing list for a week at a hotel by the beach.  Here's what I've got so far.

1 pair of convertible quick dry pants (they're pants!  they're shorts!  they're a swimsuit!)
1 pair of pajama shorts
Shirts (I haven't decided how many to pack yet)
1 wedding ring
1 pair of sunglasses
iPhone and charger
Ear buds
Toothbrush and toothpaste
Hotel shampoo bottle filled with Tide to wash clothes in sink
Flushable wipes (never assume the bathroom tissue ply situation!)
Medication
Booze
Food (I like to empty the cupboards to find all the snacks that have hidden and take them on trips instead of stopping or paying at the hotel or something)


Shirt-wise, I usually wear a tank top while driving and carry a short sleeve dress shirt up front with me for if we stop somewhere nice.  Then I keep a second short sleeve dress shirt in the bag to change into after I reach my destination and freshen up.  I also try to wear shirts I should throw out so I don't have to bring them back.  This trip though, I don't have any throw-away shirts and I'm feeling fancier than two shirts and a tank top.  Might still go with it though.

If I do, then my bag will only have pills, pajama shorts, one shirt, toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, and wipes.  And then all the food and booze I can fit in the back of the car.
