Contents of a Character's Wallet by Formica Dinette

June 30th, 2006 5:19 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: In Jack Finney's short story, "Contents of a Dead Man's Pocket", the character - clinging to the side of a building - imagines what the world will think of him if they only have the contents of his pockets to consider.

Empty your pockets, your wallet, your purse out onto a table- tally the contents and tell us what the world would think of you, if they had only those effects to consider. Then, decide upon one thing to add to the contents of your pockets, your wallet, or your purse, which will better enunciate the truth of your person to the world.

Current Purse (I change frequently)
Covered in buttons including my booby buttons from Celina
Contains:
-Pink Razr Cellphone, with Beener the dog on it (from Kitty, named by Celina), and usually in a green ipod sock
-Wallet that I love
-Change purse from Amsterdam (not always in there)
-Keys to house, car, bike lock, handcuffs, house in NC, fancy key from Spain that opens nothing, with Rockits, C3PO, and Amsterdam shoe keychains
-Canon SD400, wears a pink iPod sock (not pictured, bc I can't photograph my camera without another camera, sheesh)
-Tylenol, Zantac, Loestrin 1/20, Sinus Tylenol
-Smell-free lotion, Chapstick, Neosporin, Lip gloss, Nail file
-Glasses/Camera/Phone cleaner-offer
-Bubblemint gum, I am addicted, even though I am a yucky gum-chewer
-Free panty coupon (currently)

Wallet
Contains:
-MN Driver's License
-USBank Student Credit Card
-USBank Check Card
-NC SECU Check Card
-NC SECU ATM card for while in Barcelona (in case other one stopped working, which it did!!)
-Banana Republic card, Ma's Banana Republic card, Express Card (which I do not need)
-Punch card for Punch Pizza, Punch card for The Tea Garden, Punch card for Home Video, Punch card for Breadsmith, and one for Pants Shortening Place
-Banana Republic Gift Card (from graduation)
-Social Security Card, AAA Card, Insurance Card
-Membership Card for Turchin Center for the Arts in Boone
-Aveda Card, Good restaurant cards, MN Roller Derby card
-My Apple Card
-A couple bucks

To Add
-I would make my cell phone green because I LOVE GREEN and don't really like pink. I like my pink phone though, that's why I got it.
-I would add my computer, but it wouldn't fit. I'd say my iPod but honestly I rarely use it...
-I want my 2 mini dachshunds in there but they live in NC...
-Maybe a postcard from my Ma, which she sends all the time and they always say "Love, yo ma" because I love those cards!
-Oh, also some tape! Yes, Scotch Tape. I am always playing with tape.

How I would be seen from my purse/wallet
-A very obsessive-compulsive about cleaning, weiner dog loving, stomachache and headache getting, shopping and food loving, and well-prepared person who tries not to have babies or jagged fingernails.
-It's all true! Although the nail file is for when I start biting my nails so I can file instead.

All those "buy X get X" cards could almost be a task unto themselves - making some exchange of them?

Does that beautiful key open anything, or is it merely decorative?

oooh there's idea!

and no, it does not open anything. i bought it in granada, spain when i was living in barcelona and i asked the guy to cut it for me so he just cut it however he wanted to. but my apartment key was a pretty gold one also, just not as fancy.
