My Superfluous Life

So this morning I was trying to find my drivers license to get a prescription for my headache I had. It wasn't in it's usual spot in my purse which is common lately because it's such a mess in there. Well, I ended up having to take out a quarter of all of the contents in my purse to search for my ID which, kind of funny but not at the time, wasn't even in there. I decided after I walked to the Gateway and back on my lunch break with the heavy purse that when I got home I was going to empty out my purse and reorganize. BIG mistake. This is a whole freaking day project. I couldn't even believe the amount of shiz that was in my purse when I dumped it out. I was pretty surprised. It was like Mary Poppins bag of tricks.
In this little purse I have, I found the following items:



1 - My camera
2 - 2 1/2 packs of Stride gum
3 - Sunglasses
4 - My prescription
5 - Tylenol
6 - My work phone
7 - My passport, you never know when you'll need your passport - probably when you have lost the drivers license.
8 - 3 concert ticket stubs
9 - My Lagoon parking pass
10 - Deodorant-I never remember in the morning on my rush out the door, so I have to put it on on the way.
11 - A MILLION receipts for no reason at all
12 - Clear nail polish - you JUST never know
13 - Perfume - again, you never know
14 - A notepad, no pen I might add
15 - My little metal wallet o' cards
16 - $8 cash and $5.14 in change
17 - My checkbook, 3 bills, a gum wrapper, 4 lip gloss(es)? things of lip gloss?, a girl's number, a ponytail holder, 2 bobby pins and a band aid (unused)

Who needs all of this stuff? I guess I just am ready to travel to Mexico at the drop of a hat. Or to Lagoon.

You do carry a lot of shiz in your purse! I respect that.

That's awesome. I wrote a similar post last September regarding the same thing. I would have contests with people to see who had the most random items in their bag. But I think you win.

I think I may have more shiz in my purse! Now I just want to go clean it!
