Perhaps the most liberating thing that I have done for myself in a very long time is when I began to carry a “purse”.
Some people call the man purse a “murse”. I prefer to just call it a bag.
When I need to carry my iPad and laptop with me I carry my Gene Simmons Money Bag.
I can also slide a bunch of pens and pencils and a couple of file folders in the Money Bag. Convenience.
However, if I do not need my computer gear I carry my Saddleback Leather Pouch. Inside this bag I fit my small moleskine notebook, a point and shoot camera, a small bag of quarters and loonies (parking meter money) and my wallet. In the outside pocket I slip my mobile phone.
Liberating.
