What's in your bag right now?

[petep9000]

Well, I made up my mind. I'm to take one of my mesh bags and roll it into a tight ball and tuck it into my knapsack that I carry to and from work. I'll just need to remember it's there LOL. I carry so much other junk anyway, I probably won't notice the extra bulk.

Hey, this sounds like the makings of a good 'getting to know you' type of thread. To be continued...

So what IS in your bag right now? Could be your pocketbook, or your knapsack, or your manbag, or your fannie-pack. Do you have enough stuff to survive 3 days in a blizzard? Do your friends and family mock you for it's contents? Or is it all business. Let it all out here, kids..
Here's mine:

Bag type- brown leather knapsack
Manufacturer- 'Leather Tree'
When used- daily, to and from work only

Main section:
'The Power Broker' by Robert Caro, 1000+ page bio on Robert Moses
ID badge for work
Pager for work
Cellphone
Housekeys
Tiny Hagstrom map of NYC and boroughs
Subway map
Empty plastic bag (I get migraines, sometimes I need to vomit- gross, right?)
Scarf
Gloves
Beannie (these will be jettisoned once warm weather is here for good)
Collapsible umbrella (all year long)
Spare ballpoint pen

My lunch and snacks, usually packed in reusable plastic containers.

Smaller zippered section:
Pack of gum (cinnamon burst, this week)
Small screw top tube which looks like a lipstick, contains 8 aspirins.
Tube of 'Orajel'
Two 400mg ibuprofin tablets
Tube of 'Blistex'
'Burt's Bees' hand salve (used on lips actually, Blistex is redundant, can go back in the medicine chest)
Tube of 'Campho Phenique'
Tube of 'TobraDex' (I had a 'stye' a few weeks ago, this can go back in the medicine chest at home)
'Stim-U-Dent' wooden toothpick thingies
One aceteminophin suppository (in case I get a migraine with vomiting and can't swallow aspirin, ibuprofin, etc. Obviously, need a restroom and a few minutes of privacy for this one)
Dozen or so Ativan .05 mg in small pill container (never leave home without them)
