, I decided to give you all a peek into what crap I carry around in my purse. I tell you, it even surpised me. I decided I'm going to downsize from my apple green purse to a smaller banana yellow purse.
Well....because it's smaller. And banana yellow.
First, I opened my as yet
unused banana yellow purse.
Alas what have we here?
Why it appears to be "stuff". In my unused purse. What kind of stuff. Well, 1.60 Euro and two
Shrinky Dinks to be exact. The Euro coins are strange since we live
no where near Europe.
The Shrinky Dinks? Surprisingly not so strange if you knew my kids.
Beware, the crap from the green purse is next:
Let's see......we have two
clean tissues all wadded up from the bottom of my purse.
Also a stack of receipts from various stores and restaurants totalling.....HOLY SHITTAKE MUSHROOMS $1190.96!
I guess it's been a while since I've cleaned out my purse. On the plus side, I do have various grocery store coupons such as $2.00 off Tyson Frozen Boneless Chicken. Or if I don't want to go through the trouble of thawing and preparing, I have $2.00 of a whole roasted chicken.
Wait, what's that? Damn, they expired April, 30.
Let's see, there is also $3.33 in loose change. This includes state quarters from New Jersey, Rhode Island, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, and Arkansas. I have 14 nickels, which is strange in itself, as the nickel is the least used coin. Other than the current buffalo nickel, I was unaware that they were making special edition 5 cent coins. I have one celebrating the Louisiana Purchase.
Moving on....
I have a ATM deposit receipt, two unopened pads of sticky notes, an opened package of Hubba Bubba Max Cherry-Lemonade gum that I don't even like, a gum wrapper, a piece of gum sans gum wrapper, and an atomic fireball wrapper (this last one
should not surprise you).
I also have an eyeglass cleaning cloth, a compact mirror, a really cool
Umbra case that I keep gift cards in. I have a laminated prayer card from my grandfather's funeral (it has the
prayer of St. Francis).
Rounding out the miscellany I have my house keys,
Lip Venom, Softlips balm, an appointment card from my salon, hand cream, instructions from the pulmonologist about Becca's treatment, info from the hospital and a receipt for tests on Snickers. Oh and a Toys R Us gift card that didn't make it into the case.
Last, but not least, let's not forget my hot pink wallet that contains my credit cards, pictures of the girls, and my driver's license which has the most heinous picture of me.
Wad can attest to that.
Oh, what's this? I almost forgot the little zipper pocket:
We have three lipsticks, and four lip glosses, a tampon, a hair elastic, a receipt from a doctor's appointment and an order for a fasting blood test that I never had done (ooops).
And you know the best part? Once I cleaned out all the crap (shut up, it's subjective), I was able to
fit cram it
easily in the banana yellow purse.
‹ shut up already
