I have four or five purses that I hardly every use, and one that goes with me almost everywhere. It's black, and while it looks relatively small it holds as much as the ginormous purses I used to buy. I love it, and I'm sad that it was a $15 Kohl's purchase that will probably self-destruct before 2009.
In rather me-me-me news, I'm slightly bummed because the dealer up the road sold the last Honda Fit today, and as I wasn't planning to buy until tomorrow, I'm outta luck. He'll have the '09s in around the end of August, but I don't want to wait. So I'll be schlepping off to Burlington tonight (about 40 minutes away from me). I bitched about this to one of the IT guys, adding that it was very much a diamond-shoes-too-tight problem on a world scale, and I thought he'd bust a guy laughing at the phrasing. So that makes up for a little bit.
Thank GOD, Allyson. I'm sorry you and your family had to go through all this bullshit, but at least it ends here.
I really should get more purses. I have bigger bags that I don't really need anymore now that I'm not teaching. I really just need something big enough for wallet, keys, iPod, sunglasses, and work badge. Sometimes my heels. My lunch I usually carry separately.
I can't believe all the stuff that some of you carry around. I change bags every day so that would drive me crazy. Mostly, I keep a stock of stuff (umbrella, makeup, etc.) in my desk drawer at work. I would love to get to the point where I keep a few pairs of heels at work, so I don't have to bring those everyday either.
ETA: Yay Allyson!!!
YAY ALLYSON! Such a relief.
Excellent news, Allyson! YAY!

Oh, I have entire file cabinets devoted to shoes, and so do most of the women I work with.
