Bag of Dreams
I bought my first handbag in a mall because I am a girl and that is what I am supposed to do, right? But purses have always been a foreign concept to me. In the past I have been ridiculed by friends for not bringing a bag to the movies and asking my sister to hold my things in her bag instead.
All that room for what! I never got
that. I bring my wallet, my keys, and my
cellphone, and that is all I ever need. Yea, the
occasional lipstick and water bottle takes up some room, but still I always have
plenty of space left. Pockets full of
air. So I started shoving anything I
could fit or find into my bags, to have a purpose for carrying the purse in the
first place.
My Mary Poppins purse.
Currently in my bag: 5million
chap sticks, an extremely long plastic spoon, a few paperclips, a hair bow,
stickers, postcards, colored pens and a Budweiser one, a pink Betsey Johnson
earring holder with no earrings in them, a candy cane, a donkey lollipop, a card with an old doctor’s
appointment scrawled on it, a few Snapple caps, my father’s pharmaceutical company’s hand
sanitizer, my migraine medication, an inhaler, and a Smoking Loon wine cork.
Okay, okay, maybe this is me:

Deals at the end?
Wayne Brady or Jonathan Mangnum would say, “Do you have any dental floss? I
will give you five hundred dollars if you have dental floss.”
And this would be me:
"I know I have it somewhere."

See, that is his bag at the bottom!
All full of tricks.
But I am sure he never had this problem:
