"How are you feeling today?" Yet another pointless thread. I guess.

I can't find my Perfect Bag. I have an image in my head of a canvas satchel/messenger/shoulder bag type thing, khaki colored with a large flap, one strap, and an actual metal buckle (maybe a pocket or two under the flap), and I can't find anything like it anywhere! All I see are ugly handbags, those awful trendy plastic-y laptop bags, and wannabe military equipment.

It wouldn't be so bad if I knew how to sew, but I don't so I can't even make it.

I know what you're talking about, those are cool and practical. Try an Army Navy Surplus store. If you have one, that is. We have two or three, so you probably have one somewhere.

When I wanted a laptop bag I got a better deal at a charity shop.

$120 dollars for a pretty little trendy bag with a face like logo on it.
Only one space and one small pocket, it is very thin, no hard materials inside, when I dropped it I could see the laptop breaking.

This charity shop laptop bag only costed me $15 dollars.

It is slightly smaller than the other but it is has a longer width with hard coated materials. So the impact of it dropping would be less on the devices inside. The laptop space which is in the middle is full of fluffy material with two pockets and disc holders. Three openable spaces by the side and it is robust.

I think they deliberately do it. These computer stores who sell the flimsy weak laptops bags are waiting for them to be dropped so the laptops can be brought in for repair by desparate customers.

Then they have these trendy over priced warranties that only covers for when it is dropped. But not for when it is stolen or damaged in fire or natural causes.


I am running out of trousers. I may need to have my last ones measured up for calling a manufacturer to compare all lengths. The catelogues have waist measurements but no crutch measurements.

I am not going to feel uncomfortable with a tight bum droopy legs just because the mass majority does.

Seeing now I sense a hidden aggression:
"Three sets of sizes for all. We have the mass majority to serve so why should YOU be any different?" Something for me to ask when that is said next time.


Everytime I plan to go looking around for clothes at the local shops I feel ill. Always the same result.

A good bag is a wonderful thing. My laptop case carries anything I want to put in it, from a laptop to other large and preferably concealed items in the main compartment, with plenty of side pockets for other stuff up to middling sized books. I've found it useful on a number of occasions for things other than carrying a laptop.

I really need a new bag, I've had mine sine Chrsitmas '03, and its designed more with the intent of carrying skateboards and CD players than laptops, bongs and actual paperwork. We'll see what happens when I get my loan through again.

Yeah, because I don't have to worry about food, beer, pot, rent, train tickets back and forth across the country, shiny trinkets, bass amps...

I've still got a fairly nasty cough/cold, and 500 words of pointless essay to do before the post goes this evening, but at least I'm assured of my train tickets, so I get to see the missus tomorrow! laugh.gif

Really sleepy today. Had to wake up early to baby-sit. Someone hand me an energy drink . . . I need the ENERGY. Inside of the ENERGY . . . drink.

Have you ever tried canned coffee? Iced coffee inside a soda pop can, not the big can with coffee grounds that is. You can get them at usually any oriental store and I've found that they perk up up much better than energy drinks without the taste of piss you get with redbull/monster/buukoo.

I've had cold bottled coffee. That turned out to be pretty good. Except for the name, which was "Crapachino" or something like that. If I remember right, it gave me energy.

Not sure if there are any oriental stores around here, though...
