chick post - purses!

[ovrclokd]

eleven years ago, my father and i went traveling around italy together... i bought a purse there, from a small leatherworker's stall in some market alley near a church, and have been using it for over a decade - which, given my level of travel, is a lot of abuse. last year, it finally started to literally disintegrate

Sweet. I'm not into purses either, but those look kinda cool. :) I'd have to say you should have gotten the smaller one in red, and the larger one in black. :) Then you even have choices. ;)

part of me wants to just get the smaller one in red, too, since it's on sale - i do have leftover christmas money. the other part of me says i don't need three purses. (but it'd be interesting to see if i could get a third driver's license... maybe that'd be pushing my luck.)

Do it... then, since you don't like getting new purses, you'll make these last longer, and if one gets damaged, you already have a backup, just like the license. ;)

you are Not Helping. :) i don't want to end up with imelda marcos syndrome!

(if it's a different color, somehow that means it doesn't really count as a backup. my brain is weird.)

I AM helping, just a different cause. ;)

And I'd agree its not a backup, but "alternative temporary replacement" ;)
