You can tell a lot about a woman...

I've seen this mini-meme around flickr and thought it sounded like fun. So in lieu of a wordy post tonight I'm giving you... *drumroll please* THE CONTENTS OF MY PURSE. Could there *BE* anything more exciting?

If I can impart one thing on you with this entry, it's the tremendous beauty that is Moleskine. I love them so dearly, and so should you, what with their beautiful and durable leather binding, elastic band to hold the precious contents neatly together, and itty bitty paper pocket in the back for secret squirrel notes. Everyone should run to their nearest Barnes and Noble or Borders bookstores to pick up one or ten.

1. *THE* purse... or should I say "bag"? It really is more of an over-the-shoulder, hip-length satchel. More importantly it's brown leather and perfectly holds and organizes the contents of my life.
2. Ella. My little beauty travels everywhere with me. And why wouldn't she? Look how gorgeous she is!
3. Checkbook.
4. Wallet, lined in pink of course. What other color would line my wallet I ask of you?
5. Moleskine address book.
6. Pen-carrier. I have this serious obsession with the type of pen I write with - which of course means I have a favorite brand and color. This little beeeyoot carries several colors in that brand PLUS a pencil. You know, in case of a pencil-mergency.
7. Moleskine journal-sized book. This item related to #8 in that I was always stuffing loose, half-folded papers in that back of that book. Until I finally decided to properly chicken scratch in one place with the hope that none of my loose paper would fly the coup and end up in someone's path at the grocery store. Yeah. That would be embarrassing.
8. The book™ someone wrote for me. It goes where-ever I go. Period.
9. Keys.
10. Keycard(s). There's actually 2 others I need to run around at work, but I couldn't show you those. Because then I'd have to kill you.
11. Coin purse, matching wallet #4. It's lined in the same pink.
12. Gum. I hate that flavor and won't ever buy it again.
13. In order from L to R - nailclippers, lipgloss, lipstick, chapstick. All very, very necessary in the contents of a woman's purse.
14. Eyeglasses case.
15. (I'm just a) Bill. (A lonely) Bill.
