Ladies, what's inside your handbags? Guys, what's inside your backpacks?

Or vice versa, on my day off I carry my backpack to almost everywhere, sometimes my handbag only to commute to work, so


this is sort of a combination: house/car keys, laptop, floppy disks, CD’s, DVD’s, cell phone, my digital camera, batteries, my old Palm Pilot, a book, cherry chapstick, lip gloss, spray gel, brush, mirror, perfume, 2 power bars, 2 granola bars, small water bottle, wallet (cash, credit cards, ID, driver license, pictures, etc.), mini make up bag, 4 herbal tea bags, band-aids, coin purse, breath mints, mint gums, hand sanitizer, hand cream, iPod nano, sunglasses, address book, color pencils, pens, pencils, mini journal, moist towelettes, tissues, small notebook, matches, small flash light and a mini First Aid kit (just because this is New York..!)
