You can learn things about a grrl from what’s in her purse. Here’s some of what’s in mine:
- Two Epi-Pens.
- Two inhalers.
- Puppy linux CD
- Knoppix S-T-D CD
- Cellphone.
- PDA.
- Screwdriver.
- Thumb drive.
- Pens.
- Titanium spork from Think Geek.
What do you carry around with you?

Comment by k.mankiller October 31, 2007 @ 1:51 pmAlso, why three calculators?
Yes, the remote is for the laptop 😉
Comment by B. B. Kristopher October 31, 2007 @ 2:00 pmI have three calculators because I bought the TI-83 when I was a history major, and the 83 is recommended for Algebra and Statistics, but doesn’t do Calculus. I still have it because I took a class on how to use it and am really fast with it. I bought the TI-89 when I switched to physics because it has calculus functions built in. I carry it for obvious reasons. I have a TI-30XA because they don’t allow graphing calculators into the American Chemistry Society exams. I carry it with me in case the batteries in the other two die at the same time.
I understood that the remote was for the laptop. 🙂 I just don’t understand why. Is it just for watching movies, or is there some other function it does?

Comment by B. B. Kristopher October 31, 2007 @ 2:08 pmAs for the calculators, is this where I mention I have deep and abiding calculator lust right now?
Heh. 😀
Comment by k.mankiller October 31, 2007 @ 2:11 pmYou have calculator lust; I have cellphone lust.
Yes, well, I also have iPhone lust, but I don’t have $399.00 to spend.
Comment by B. B. Kristopher October 31, 2007 @ 2:14 pmNot right now, anyway.
Yes, well, I hear that.
Comment by k.mankiller October 31, 2007 @ 2:19 pmI want to combine my PDA and cellphone, so I have less to carry. So I was hoping for Palm OS, a nicer camera than my current cellphone, unlimited Internet, and, of course, an SSH client. I mean, what’s a cellphone without an SSH client?
Worthless!
Comment by B. B. Kristopher October 31, 2007 @ 2:22 pmAlas, I wouldn’t be able to get rid of my iPod, because I’ve got more stuff on my iPod that the iPhone has memory, but I would love to have a web enabled phone with a decent camera. And the iPhone browses over WiFi when it’s available!
Yeah, the wifi thing is nice. I’d like that, too.
Comment by k.mankiller October 31, 2007 @ 2:27 pmI’m a total web-enabled phone junkie. *twitch* And the camera on my current phone sucks.
The bulk of things I carry are:
Comment by Julie October 31, 2007 @ 5:30 pm– Things to write with
– Things to write on
– Wallet with a variety of financial instruments so that I can buy more things to write with and write on
I also carry other important things, like medicine and phone and tire gauge and a deck of playing cards.
Tire gauge? You’re so organized, Julie! 🙂
Comment by k.mankiller October 31, 2007 @ 8:31 pmOrganized, nothing. Someone gave me a tire gauge a year and a half ago, and I put it in my purse. Never got around to moving it. 🙂
