All of that stuff down there was rumbling inside my handbag until about 3pm this afternoon. I had to tidy it out. It was becoming a bit of an ordeal trying to find my car keys in there after work.
Among other things, I found:
...at least two hundred and
seven pens ~ two small forests worth of Random Bits of Paper ~ about six used-up
order pads for work ~ various drafts of short stories I’ve been working on ~ two tickets for a recent heavy metal gig I went to (quite an
experience...) ~ two tea bags ~ £6.86 in spare change ~ a name-tag from my brief
stint as a poetry conference steward ~ my work tie ~ and two pretty
good books (‘Consider the Lobster’ – a collection of essays by David Foster
Wallace – and Carol Shields’ short stories. Having only two books is unusual for me, actually. I
normally carry about a mini-library).
No wonder my shoulder’s been kind of sore recently. I should do a clean out more often.
(p.s. in case you're wondering... those pandas are my socks. Cute, eh?)
