My Kingdom for a Purse
I’ve spent half a lifetime in search of the right purse. I like to haul my junk around, so I think I need a purse on the larger size. I don’t want to be bothered changing my purse to go with every outfit so I need a more neutral purse - basically black leather fits the bill. Much of my life is lived in a conservative world, so I need a conservative purse - no tassles, chains or bizarre graphic designs.
A simple, normal, grown up handbag. I can’t find it. I’ve tried cheap. I’ve tried moderately priced. I’ve gone a little higher priced than that (I refuse to invest in a really expensive purse; I would have to carry it for the rest of my life).
There must be some psychological issues tied up in this for me. That’s the only explanation.
Knowing that, I’m ready to go out on a fresh expedition. Somewhere out there, a purse I can live with is just waiting for me to find it, take it home with me, and fill it with the paraphernalia of my life!
