Super dialogue/slice of life. I especially loved "I’ve never met a dyke so concerned with finding the right hand bag.”

oh yay! I'd totally forgotten about this. :D

Glad you liked it, and thank you so much for commenting *grins*

I spent so many years trying to be a 'proper' dyke and not carry a handbag at all. I was so glad when I decided to just cave and be girly - so I had to get handbags in somehow ;)

*tries to envision what consititutes an 'improper' dyke* Handbags are a practical canvas for self-expression...but then, I'm one of those gals who hauls everything I think I might possibly need, so I end up with satchels or hobo bags the size of a beach ball. I've been handbag-hunting myself, lately. I need something to carry on interviews, something that Makes A Career Statement. Tailored. Sensible. Boring. *eyeroll*

I friended you on the basis of your yummy House obsession, I hope you don't mind....

Friended? *grins*

Oh, when one went to UCSC in the early 90's one had chapter and verse on what constituted an 'improper' dyke. *sigh*

I'm not good with sensible handbags really. I have big for work and small for going out shopping in town and medium for when I don't want to be without my journal. Pink and green, variously. If they clash with what I'm wearing... meh! *is very grateful I don't have any job interviews coming up*

My current bag is leopard print. (I have A Thing about leopard prints. I even have a leopard print alarm clock.) I also have blue denim with faux leather, a cute little apple green canvas one that was a gift from my best friend---I take that one if I'm traveling light---and those are just the recent ones, I probably have twenty of them kicking around the house because I'm bad at getting rid/keeping track of things. So I'm probably going to use this as an excuse to get a really good leather bag, maybe a Fossil. (I love Fossil, but the story of my life is that I've always had more taste than money.)
