They could have at least tucked a dollar into my flipflops, right?

I love, love, LOVE leeann!

Oh, great! Now there's a product line that combines two of my biggest lusts -- purses and photography. Thanks to Dooce, I stumbled over Epiphanie. Now I want the Belle. And the Lola Red. Argh! (And I just got a really great camera bag for my birthday and a new Fall bag, as well. I'm an ungrateful wench, I know...)

Just when you think politics can't get any lower or dirtier:

The Florida Democratic Party today said it made an "oversight" when it included Republican congressional challenger Allen West's Social Security number in an attack mailer.

For shame. (And the Dems must really be scared of him if they have to stoop that low.)

The bag bug bit me again, and I just had to order this lovely Buco bag that was on sale at ideeli.

Worse than Groupon, ideeli is my latest online shopping crack. Too. Much. Temptation. To. Pass. Up.

Sigh. At least it was far more affordable than that oh-so-pricey Botega Veneta bag that was singing its siren song to me...

Quote of the Day:

You cannot hide an ideology of fear, intolerance, and hate behind the words “I am a Christian.” Such words ring hollow and are rendered meaningless when the actions that proceed and follow such words betray your true meaning.

Too right.

Yeah, yeah, yeah -- I'll get over it soon. Like after the parade tomorrow, maybe.

Nah.

It'll be a while before I get tired of it.

Oh, sure. I finally find a sassy summer bag in a color I like that will hold just the right amount of stuff (laptop, Kindle, wallet and camera), has the right handle length and the right number of inner pockets... and it costs over $2,000!!!

Urk.

(I have good taste. So sue me.)

Time to start the hunt all over again.

I mean, I could go with this funky little number... but it would be a little bit like carrying an expensive psychedelic disco ball bag.

I like the shape and specs of this bag, but that's a lot of money for a purse that looks like it had a fountain pen break inside and leak through.

This big bad girl is gorgeous, too... but is it worth six months rent? I don't think so.

Sigh.

Its really bad when the only bags I like this season make last year's boot purchase (L1105B) look positively reasonable.

Back to the drawing board...
