Yes, but make sure you can actually stuff the purse in there. Sometimes, people are all 'but I COULD stuff the purse in!" and they're like "Um, but ....do it." and then the person can't, really.
Oh don't worry, I'm planning on doing a packing test run on Sunday.
I was surprised at the amount of cluelessness that still persists in airport security lines. There was a woman wearing a few pounds of metal jewelry who couldn't understand why the metal detector kept going off
The security people usually really like me, because I know enough to send everything I can through the x-ray machine. Bag, hat, shoes, jewelry ...
Plus, they usually seem pretty amused by me and whatever bunny I'm traveling with that, which probably helps.
Two travel notes:
- Some airlines are imposing new luggage fees. To pay for fuel, they say.
- There are now three lines in many airports. Basically frequent flier, casual traveler, and families or special needs.
And don't wear gun jewelry, or they may get you: [link]

They're probably all just delighted at seeing all the bits and pieces that go through, as opposed to endless dull purses, shoes, etc. I imagine a sparkly top hat with feathers and a pin looks a lot more cool sitting in one of those bins than yet another diaper bag.

Read the bit about the guy who told security he had a bomb because he didn't want to admit he had a penis pump with his mother standing there!
I found this on Wired today: [link]
Somehow one doesn't often think of the Secretary of State of the US being a KISS fangirl...
...But then I tend to think of people like Henry Kissenger as SoS.
congrats omnis!
Kristin, that sounds like something my pal Ben would say whole rolling his eyes at the JHUocracy.
congrats, omnis!
WOOT! Our Ohio house buyout is finally sorted out. The company is definitely buying it, and we should be getting the details from the real estate company soon. This is going to take a HUGE load off of our stress plate.
DH has been in the throes of severe allergies recently. Claritin is knocking him out with the sleepy. We need to figure out an OTC remedy that isn't going to zombify him.
I'd say "congratulations omnis," but I seem to be bitter about you moving out of town.
Congratulations anyway. Sounds pretty cool.
(Not as cool as staying in LA would be, but still cool)
