I'd pack like a day or two before, just so I can have at least a night's sleep to wake up and go "OH SHIT I FORGOT TO PACK-" so that it's not too late to pack it.

After forgetting pajamas (!!) once and then realizing how easy it was to just buy a pajama shirt I’ve resolved to feel less panic about that when I travel to major cities Still have the dreams about traveling with nothing packed though 😅
