<p>Remember there is a good CVS right across the street. If you need batteries, first aid supplies, etc., you can shop there. </p>
<p>I think it is good to have a thermometer and some Advil or Tylenol, though. If you are feeling miserable and wondering if you have a fever, you don’t want to go out looking for a thermometer. Also, if you need to call the nurse hotline during the night, it is good to be able to say if you have a fever. Digital thermometers are small, lightweight, and cheap.</p>
<p>If you are coming from outside the area and have spring allergies at home, you might find you have fall allergies in Austin. If pollen is not your friend, bring Zyrtec or whatever you usually use. Again, if you are feeling miserable with itchy eyes and runny nose, you don’t want to go out looking for an antihistamine.</p>
