Okay, I'm exaggerating a bit but I really do carry all of this stuff around with me everyday. I was a Girl Scout and I just can't break out of the "Be Prepared" mentality. And I like options, so that makes it worse.
The good thing is that, while there is a lot of stuff, it is very well organized in my bag and I can find everything in a snap! And this purse is great. It isn't a big black hole and the straps are long enough to fit over my shoulder.
On the Flicker page for this image there are roll-overs, but what you see here includes:
- Dooney & Burke Alto Bag
- Phone 1 - Blackberry for work
- 60GB iPod - previous b-day gift
- Phone 2 - iPhone - last year's b-day gift, in white leather case
- Kindle - this year's b-day gift
- Estee Lauder pink heart compact
- Coach wallet - filled with cards but no cash
- Owl bag - business cards for work and blog, notebook, hair clip and hair band
- Moleskine journal - filled coupouns and to dos
- Flash Drive - what the heck is on that?
- Dooney Keychain - has house, work and car keys, plus my YMCA tag which I don't even belong to anymore. But it helps me sort my keys.
- Multiple Lip products - Burt's Bees Lip Balm L'Oreal lipgloss, Chanel lipstick
- Black bag - "lady" products, Stella travel perfume, Bvlgari White Tea towelettes, nail file, floss, blotting papers, travel flashlight and swiss army knife.
- Stickers and mini-business cards from MOO.com
The sad thing is that I also carry a laptop bag with my computer and files as well as another shopping bag filled with computer cords, my mouse, my lunch and, of course, my shoes for the day.
I should be a good 3 inches taller! Geez!

Be careful, Poochie!
I saw a special on TV a while ago (sorry, can't remember what/when/where) about how overstuffed purses were causing significant back problems for a lot of women. While a simple change of habit was good enough for most, some had to have intervention by a doctor to remedy the problems.
Not that you have a lot of stuff in yours really. It's the combination of those other bags that might be an area of concern.
I believe it! I'm a pack mule.
Luckily I drive to work and don't have to shelp them very far. And I do thin out my bag if I'm walking around a lot.

I love your stuff.
I always cringe when people talk about how unhealthy it is to lug around a giant handbag full of stuff ... I'm guilty of it, too!
