I’ve seen a trend on websites like Lifehacker and Flickr where people show off the contents of their bag. Their bag is unloaded and the items are methodically laid out for others to review. (personally, I think 90% of this is designed to show off their Mac toys…)
I’ve decided to play along and show off what is currently in my bag, see below:
A quick review of the inventory (from right to left):
- A banjo – I can really only play one song, which my mom doesn’t like because it sounds depressing. I have always felt this was quite a feat – to play a depressing song on a banjo.
- The Complete Book of Breastfeeding – I currently don’t breastfeed, but if I ever start I’m fairly sure that if I suddenly start it will come as such a shock that I’ll require the use of a manual.
- Canned Pumpkin Pie Filling – This is good to get gum out of hair.
- Roomba – for quick carpet cleaning, as required.
- My super-cool iBook. I know you’re jealous. It’s a vintage 1998 model.
- A stud finder – for the joke that never gets old (where I hold the stud finder up to my chest and say “beeeeeep”).
- Prestone De-Icer – obviously for hair styling.
- My universally despised, yet oh so comfortable fur-lined crocs. I’m a slave to fashion.
- Ulysses by James Joyce – for light reading on the toilet.

Here is what’s in my bag.
* A passport… Just to throw off the man.
* A House of Blues Coozie… My hands are sensitive.
* A piece of driftwood… Because Travis is my favorite band.
* Running Shoes
* A Tiara, in case I have to use the Passport… It gets you through security faster.
* Afrin, because I am addicted.
Um, you almost completely made my day with the driftwood line. That was about perfect.
I tried to post a picture of it all… But I guess I can’t post. I’ll email it to you.
I get a thrill out of your remarkable posts! It’s almost as if they are intelligent! Almost! Love reading your stuff!
I laughed out loud for so long, my wife finally asked me what I was reading. I’m still trying to figure out how the banjo fit into the bag…but I know…that was a part of the joke! Love your blog…and Lauren’s!
Why can’t you learn a happy banjo song???
