dancerjodiI did end up finding a purse yesterday at the Burlington Mall in Filenes. I figured, once I get something into my head it will drive me nuts until I've done it. Also, I pass the mall on the way home and it was early enough that I figured the traffic/crowds wouldn't be too bad. I got a Nine West bag similar to the "Houndstooth Large Hobo" in black (I can't find my purse in particular on the site). You can see it in the bottom of this page: http://www.ninewest.com/ninewest/catalog/1025/sale/ . Its funny what constitutes a "large" purse these days! :)
The next 'I'm a professional and don't have to spend money on tuition anymore so I can get some things I've needed for a while for myself' purchase will be a nice black leather briefcase-type bag that will hold up forever. The pleather one I have can't be carried by the handle because the flap closes via velcro, which isn't strong enough. I've put off buying one because I didn't want to pay the $100-$200 bucks, but I've probably spent that much buying cheapie ones over and over again when the first gives out. I'm thinking something like the "Commuter Briefcase" in black on the bottom of this page: http://www.wilsonsleather.com/family/index.jsp?categoryId=1831992&cp=1855608 .
I'm making headway with work things. Tonight is dance class, so I can't complain about my life really (despite work being a bit nuts now).
We went to get a Costco membership last night, since its local to us and our BJs membership expired. I still prefer BJs (due to their selection and smaller sizes), but I'm not driving out to Framingham to go food shopping! :) We picked up supplies for the month+, in addition to foodie stuff for this weekend (taquitos!).
Phear my exciting life!
