Anyway, what brought this on was the clutch purse discussion from yesterday. I've migrated from a normal woman's purse (no link, it's no long made) to a smallish
sling bag that would hold my tablet and "a few other things," to a medium
sling bag to realizing that sling bags carried as purses looked HORRIBLE (at least the nigh-indestructable tactical ones do, and nigh-indestructable is a necessity for me;) to carrying a Serious Backpack and a clutch. Backpack stays on my desk at work or in the car when I'm out and about (should probably move the spare car key to the clutch, come to think of it) so I have access to all the gear without looking like a pack mule when I'm out and about.
How about y'all? Any interesting purse wars you've been through trying to manage all your stuff?
