Okay, DEP and DemureArt inspired me to start this up. My sister Plimates...what is in your purse? Is it time to clean it out? Fellow Plimates, do you carry a briefcase or "man bag"? what is in it?

My purse carries: my phone, my wallet, my checkbook, pens, blistex, lotion, pad of paper, a couple of toys, tissue, a truck load of o receipts, my sunglasses, my keys, and gum. I bet there is more. I really do need to clean it!

Edit: Migraine meds. I can not be with out those..I can however do without the migraines!

I wondered why your pockets were empty in the other thread, DUH! *slaps forehead*

I don't have a man bag but if I did it'd have the same items as the pockets thread plus a utility knife, some tasty ass gum, business cards, spare contacts, spare glasses, and, just for those who would make fun of my man bag, a handgun (and so that my man bag could be as manly as possible).

Normally I don't carry one. When the occasion calls for it (like when I have to wear a dress), it pretty much holds my wallet, my keys, a hair elastic, and touch up makeup. Because chances are if the occasion calls for a purse, it also calls for makeup.

However, it's pretty hard to dress me up. My "purse" is actually an old military bag from WWII. Even has the soldier's name and # still showing a little on the flap:

1676813 MARSLAND, A.

A little parable for you:

Look at the stone in the bottom of the creekbed. It is worn, and smooth and rounded from years of

..INCESSANT f**kING NAGGING BY THE WATER!

"Why don't you stick out of the water like the other rocks?"
"Do you HAVE to catch EVERY piece of driftwood that bumps into you?"
"It's time for my spring flood, you know. Every year, you just sit there while I freeze over, full of fish and algae, and when I fill up, you just sit there. Like.. Like.. A big, stoopid ROCK! *sob*

When I was about 12 years old, I was a guest on the "Wonderama Show" on TV. Boy, have I just dated myself.

I carried my Beatles leather clutch bag to the show and stuffed it with all kinds of crazy things, since he liked to ask that same question, what's in your purse. He never asked me that, but I did win a primitive marble-powered computer in a "Stump Sonny" segment.

Boy, I wish I still had that bag, it would be worth $thousands now.
