mary poppins' carpet bag ain't got nuthin' on my dooney

i decided it was time to clean out my purse when i reached in to get my wallet and my fingernails came out with some smooth gooey brown substance underneath them (please goddess, let this be chocolate and not the diaper i haven't been able to find). below is the inventory (i kid you not):

wallet
coupon wallet
lipstick
lippy (yes, they are different)
lotion. full-sized william sonoma lemon basil lotion. the full-size
13 sharpies (i love me some sharpies)
3 mechanical pencils
croquet ball
gold hoop earrings
3 pairs of MATCHING socks
1 pair of underwear (not mine...that era was over a looong time ago!)
a stamp set
stamp pad
keys
jellybeans
nailclippers
6 month old overdue bill (is that why i can't buy anything at children's place anymore? oops)
sippy cup
trader joe's deflated balloon (and i'm keeping this, why?)
diaper (unused)
paperclip (just one)
pulverized dion's crackers (some in the package, some out)
hair glitter (again, not mine. i turned that in with my crimper in the early 90's)
scissors
washable markers
princess camera
mouthwash
tooties
post-its
aquaphor
neosporin
germ fighter stuff
tweezers
fruit snacks
bubbles
2 books (1 child, 1 mine)
comp notebook
popcicle stick (used)


i wish i had the foresight to have had my camera to photograph this mess. oh well, you just have to take my word for it.
