Talk About Random

I have this tote bag that I lug back and forth to work.  I'm not sure why.  It's not like I bring work home, carry a laptop or anything like that.  Part of it is I'm too lazy to pack a lunchbox the night before, so I just toss things into the bag before I head out every morning.  And I do toss my work shoes in there if they're heels.   A couple of weeks ago I decided to clean it out.  Here's what I found:
  • a deck of Snoopy playing cards
  • a two-year-old iPod, never used
  • a small radio with the iPod earplugs
  • crumbs from unknown food items
  • black thong undies
  • ear muffs
  • beret
  • two pairs of white ankle socks
I'm trying to remember the last time I wore black thong undies, why I would have removed them at work, and if I ever wore those last four items at the same time.

You are just to danged funny. I'm wondering if the undies are really yours? Maybe they were planted by a co-worker.....

Black thong undies + ear muffs + beret + two pairs of white ankle socks + one sexy outfit.

You've got style sistah.

You crack me up. I have a bag like this that I tote to work. I dread the day I have to clean it out. If I find a thong in mine, my wife may smack me around. I should probably clean it out and post my weird list. I am guessing we all have some weird stuff we tote along everyday for no reason or for a reason we once knew but have since forgot.

That's funny!

Your title for this post is perfect, I must say. Yesterday, I found a small purple plastic witch's hat in my purse, from our Halloween lights. I think I tossed it in there when I found it on moving day, after all the boxes had been packed...about 4 years ago!

Karen: The thought of carrying around a pair of someone else's undies makes me cry a little.

Alix: I am a sexy beast.

Kurt: If your wife found you carrying a thong, I think you would just have to start wearing them. Please do a post. I'm dying to know what weirdness you're carrying around.

Flartus: Four years ago? You got me and my iPod beat by two years.

2 mp3 players
1 sony radio walkman
headphones for my cellphone (never used)
extra set of earbuds
football betting card from 10/11/08
4 non-winning lottery tickets oldest from January
5 unopened paystub receipts oldest from 2007
3 To Do Lists (not sure if I ever did them but I intended too)
Owners manual for my TV
3 printed out BBQ recipes
Some cold medicine with an expiration date of 7/2006

I am disappointed I didn't find any thongs. At least my bag is now a little lighter.

I would vote for the TV owner's manual as your most random item. Your list tells me a lot about you. :-)

Kurt said...

OK, Dr. Phil, What does this tell you about me except I don't clean it out very often?

I found black thong undies in my purse once too. Weird.

Kurt:

*The football betting card and lottery tix tell me you want to get rich without working too hard :-P
*The BBQ recipes tell me you're a kick-ass tailgater who does his research;
*The expired cold medicine tells me you don't get sick very often.

:-)

WOW! You are good. And I guess I am just pretty simple but, you have me figured out completely. I wonder what you would have said if I had listed: Ticket stub from The Village People, a fashion magazine, picture of Lance Bass, a fishing reel, a blue sharpie pen, a half eaten cookie dough poptart, and a hammer. HEHE!!!

I couldn't have said anything - I would be laughing too hard! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
