Happily stressed out, since 1974

<< What to do this weekend?
I was waving my Terrible Towel... were you? >>
I want a purse!
No, not because I'd like to get more in touch with my feminine side because I have too much crap to carry with me where ever I go. I don't want something that looks even remotely like a woman's purse, it's the functionality that I desire.
Since I'm a techie, I have toys and gadgets that seem to take up more and more room in my pockets. Hell, it's probably the main reason I haven't jumped on the PDA wagon... where the hell would I put it? My fucking pockets are full!
The contents of my everyday carrying around items are as follows:
Money clip with a credit card holder
Keys
Cell phone
Headset for cell phone
Camera (
Sony Cybershot T5
)
Some additional items I'd like to have with me but can't fit:
USB hard drive (
LaCie mobile hard drive 50gb
)
PDA (If and when I ever get one)
Now, for a guy, that's a lot of shit. For a techie, it's not shit. For a woman, it's the shit on the bottom of their purse. For me, it's the items that I just feel all warm and fuzzy carrying.
So what do I do? I'm against the
murse
and a backpack is too collegy for the business setting I find myself in at work. There's always a laptop case but then I need a laptop because without it I'd look really weird. Fanny pack... fuck you for even thinking it! So what is there? What?
