    Wallet, phone, keys and inflated ego.

    Times have changed. I used to always wear my hat backward... everyday... no matter where I went or who I was expecting to see. My grandma hated it. My mom would practically slap me at church. I loved it when my high school film teacher gave me permission to wear it everyday.

    I wore really dark black sunglasses anywhere I could even though I often didn't need them. I recently realized after being prescribed lenses that I like having frames of any kind on my face. It's like a nonsensical metaphorical shield from the outside world.

    For a while, I dropped the cap and started to wear this velcro wrist band on my left arm and a black shoestring on my right wrist. Girls are obsessed with having some kind of bracelet on to accent their wrists. But I'm a guy. It was obviously weird.

    I acquired a pair of actual jogging wristbands and started wearing those everyday while attending college. I also frequent had something around my neck. I have like 7 different "chains" (guys wear chains, girls wear necklaces) a couple of which are homemade. Most of my chains have a "talisman" (my guy way of saying a pretty charm). One looks like a ninja star, another is a chinese symbol for Tiger or something, one is a symbol for the Klingon empire (I think)... I also recently (about a year ago) acquired a strange key from an antique shop. I think it's supposed to open some kind of safe deposit box 'cause it's not shaped like a normal key. But my favorite chain has been a wallet chain which came attached to (wait for it...) a wallet given to me my grandmother. I at first, refused to use the wallet because I don't like to acknowledge gifts from this woman (she is horribly selfish and even though she is on welfare or retirement or whatever it is she gets, she still expects my dad to pay her back a debt for having helped us once with our rent when she's been mooching off of us for years... I don't like her). But I liked wearing the chain to college. It fits perfectly around my neck. Just tight enough to look like a choker but not so tight that I would have to be a complete idiot to wear it.

    I've since gone back to wearing my hat everyday (only now it's forward) and the most important thing I usually bring with me (aside from my cel and wallet) is my flashdrive. I would die if I lost that. I've already lost two. One of them just up and disappeared at college and my girlfriend accidentally broke the other one. "Accidentally"..? Or Maliciously..? She was kind of upset that I was spending more time on the computer than with her. Oh well.

    Y'know, I really don't have one. I thought I would, but on reflection there isn't anything.

    When I was married, I never took my ring off. For anything. Ever.

    It was actually a good way to lose a finger, and pretty stupid. I can be stubborn.

    I always take a deck of cards but thats only because the case doubles as my wallet.

    Also when I go to uni I feel strange without the weight of my laptop so even when Im pretty sure im not going to use it or for the last 5 weeks when it wasnt working, I bring it with me anyway.

    Apart from that theres a no longer functioning laser pointer attatched to my keys.

    Also I always bring a bucket hat because at first it was just for fun but now Ive become terrified of the sun in the last 2 years and ive grown out of the rebelious high i got from breaking the no hat no play rule drilled into me in primary school.

    My bag also contains a bottle of water I've had in there for 3+ years that i havent been bothered to throw out.

    You never know when a bottle of water will come in handy!

    I carry just the essentials and a pen because you never know when someone will want your autograph. You also never know when you will need to go Jason Bourne on some punk.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.

    Keys, wallet and phone. That's basically it, really.

    used to carry my 120Gb zune around with me everywhere till it passed away. I miss having 16,000 songs with me at all times.

    Jewelry: Jade bracelet on left wrist and silver bracelet on right wrist, silver ring on left hand, cartilage earring and earrings in earlobes. I never take these off ever. I tend to like jewelry that I can keep on all the time (even in the shower) so I don't have to bother putting it on in the morning. Oh, and I keep a hair tie on my wrist too. Used to have a belly button ring but I'm trying to make the hole close up.

    Purse: Other than the obvious phone, keys, wallet...I always bring my camera, phone charger, gum, pen, a to-do list, and a small pouch with girly "just-in-case" stuff like tampons, lotion, and some makeup. Sometimes I'll bring a magazine. It's a heavy purse...

    If we're talking about things aside the stuff that we wear...

    Then yeah, this.

    I don't use a purse; never have. Just a wallet (I need a new one, actually). Keys get clipped to a belt loop or go in a pocket, and the phone also goes into a pocket. I like pockets.

    I usually always bring my sunglasses with me just in case. Even if it isn't sunny when I'm getting ready to go out.

    Oh I guess I should include piercing jewelry. One in each lobe, my rook which never comes out, back helix and Jarvis. Jarvis is forever.

    Also in my wallet I have this one pocket of keepsakes. Ticket stubs, receipts, and wristbands mostly.

    Signature by rubah. I think.
