we are our bags

yes, it took me over a week to figure out what to carry when i went out. for the past year, i carried a backpack. during the winter (most of the year in cambridge), i put my wallet, cell phone and keys into the pockets of my long down coat jacket and slung my backpack/laptop on my back. now, it's back to diaper bag - or is it? do i carry a purse? a bag? finally, i combined both into a small bag. why am i blogging about this? we all carry our "work" around with us - for some, it's a calculator or durkheim, for others, a pull-up and wipes.
