THIS TIME ON STYLE FILES:
Your Bag, Your Life
In my bag, which is a navy blue Dickies tote (damn work regulations), I carry my wallet, a book, some gum, my journal, a small notepad, my CD player, and my 'survival kit', which is a small bag that contains pens, lip balm, pads, and my Epi-Pen. I used to carry a lot more, but... I don't need it!

What do you carry?
I carry whatever makeup I'm wearing that day (you never know when you have to fix something), lip balm, my wallet, a bunch of spare change that floats around, my keys, two pairs of sunglasses, iPod, blackberry, a pen, mini bottle of hand lotion, mini set of iPod portable speakers, perfume, a few band aids (someone always seems to need them around me), cigarettes, a Zippo, bus pass, camera, ibuprofen, tampons, and usually there's some kind of chocolate bar and mini bottle of water. Phew! I went through my purse and that's everything that's in it. I guess I carry a lot of stuff, it's relatively light though.
I have the cutest leather slouch bag with metal details. It carries lip gloss, my wallet, my cell phone, my camera, 3 pairs of sunglasses, random pieces of paperwork, old movie ticket stubs, pens, my checkbook, my iPod, lotion and tanning lotion.
In my purse, I carry: Burt's Bee's chap stick, C.O. Bigelow lip gloss, my hello kitty wallet, gum, my iPod and camera, vanilla hand lotion, pads and tampons, and hair clips and pony tail holders.
Well, let's see, I haven't been using a purse for very long, so it doesn't get very messy, but here's what I got: Bankbook, wallet (with gift cards, money, pics, receipts), 2 pens, 2 pads, a tampon, spare car keys for when I finally drive, strawberry chap stickk, ortho appt. reminder slip, spare links for the watch I got shortened, the watch itself, and a dime.
When I was looking for my current bag I had only one requirement: I wanted to show off at least part of my collection of pins that show off some of the places I've been. That said, I ended up at an army surplus store and bought a replica of a German Army breadbag. Normally I just carry my cell phone, red patent leather wallet, and my house/car keys. I keep it simple, I'll never understand how some women need to have everything and the kitchen sink inside their bags and purses!

Staying Healthy
I know this is kind of an odd request, but... what gets you moving in the summer? The humidity makes it seem so hot outside, but and the last thing I want to do is go and exercise. There has to be something fun that I can do, right? So... for next week, please send in any quick and easy ideas you have for staying healthy and exercising even when it's hot out!
