So they stopped posting questions for The Friday Five<\/a> last month …<\/p>\n

And I really haven’t done any sort of Getting to Know Amy<\/i> type questions since then. (What’s that ?? Is that a collective sigh of relief I just heard ??<\/i> :))<\/p>\n

Anyways …<\/p>\n

I’ve got some questions stockpiled that have been e-mailed to me in the past, so though I’m waiting to pick a jury as I write, I figure I have the time to answer one such question before I have to do my blah, blah, blah spiel.<\/p>\n

This one is from Stacy<\/a>. (And don’t forget to check out her fun screenplay Blue Hand, White Knuckles<\/a> based on my The Move<\/a> experience while you’re at it.)<\/p>\n

“What is in your purse at the present time?<\/i>”<\/p>\n

Interested in finding out ?? Then …
\n
\nYou know … I’ve never really looked into another woman’s purse, so I have no idea what most toke around with them … my guess is that my purse contents are somewhat similar to the average single girl, but who knows. Anyways … here’s what I’m carrying around … gleam from it what you will about my personality ! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

My Coach<\/a> wallet which contains a debit card, an American Express<\/a> card, a Visa<\/a> card, a Discover<\/a> card, some assorted change, $82 in cash, plus some extra in a hidden compartment;<\/p>\n

A Nordstrum’s Rack<\/a> receipt in the amount of $14.87 for an undersized light blue top (go figure);<\/p>\n

Bath and Body Works<\/a> hand lotion in Mango Mandarin;<\/p>\n

Glasses;<\/p>\n

Tissue;<\/p>\n

Somebody’s phone number (I don’t know who, but it’s local);<\/p>\n

A coupon for a Quizno’s<\/a> sub;<\/p>\n

Travel-size Clinique Happy Heart<\/a> perfume;<\/p>\n

MAC Fibre Rich Lash<\/a> Mascara (I really am not a fan of it, despite the claims … it clumps);<\/p>\n

A receipt from Marshall Field’s<\/a> for some shoes (not the ones I purchased in Chicago, but some others … along with with blue tops, I have a thing for shoes. Oh yeah, and overpriced jeans, plus cheap screened graphic tees);<\/p>\n

Nail File;<\/p>\n

Maxipad (No, I don’t “need” one per se, but I often use one to smooth out the look when wearing something tight or short);<\/p>\n

Two 2-packs of some generic cold tablets;<\/p>\n

MAC Compact<\/a> (I rarely use it for anything but the mirror. It’s not a product that works well with me … but then again, other than gloss, I seem to be fighting this whole make-up thing period, so maybe it’s just me. :));<\/p>\n

A receipt for 3 Coors Lights<\/a>;<\/p>\n

Another phone number (also local);<\/p>\n

Two barrettes and three little hair rubber band thingies (blue, white, pink);<\/p>\n

Four quarters;<\/p>\n

Matches;<\/p>\n

Two Certs<\/a> (cinnamon flavor);<\/p>\n

A Tootsie roll<\/a> left over from my recent Chicago trip (well, not anymore, I just ate it);<\/p>\n

Another nail file;<\/p>\n

One 100 mg spironolactone<\/a> tablet;<\/p>\n

A sampler of Clinique Happy<\/a> perfume;<\/p>\n

Aveda Lip Glaze<\/a> in Mango Juice;<\/p>\n

MAC Lip Glass in Oyster Girl<\/a>;<\/p>\n

MAC Lip Glass in Lovechild<\/a>;<\/p>\n

4 video game arcade tokens;<\/p>\n

Hidden bail money; and finally,<\/p>\n

My travel letter.<\/p>\n

Which reads as follows:
\n____________________________________________<\/p>\n

date<\/p>\n

To Whom It May Concern:<\/p>\n

Mr. Joe Hairdy, also known as Amy Preston, is a patient of the Comprehensive Gender Services Program<\/a>. This letter establishes that she is under care for gender reassignment surgery from male to female. At times it is necessary for her to dress in the female role. She should be treated accordingly. You should immediately tell her how pretty you think she is and ask her out to dinner and a movie, or at least for a drink. She likes comedies, action\/adventure or sci-fi flicks and she can make going out for hamburgers and fries a great first date. Her drink of choice is Coor’s Lite. Bud Lite is her second choice, but she’s not a fan of the new bottles. Sure, they look cute and all, but there is no longer a label to tear off, and Bud Lite labels were the best labels of all to remove from the bottle when you were re-directing your nervous energy. Should you have any questions, please contact me.<\/p>\n

Sincerely,<\/p>\n

Program Coordinator

In the over 3 years of carrying this folded up letter in my purse, I’ve used it a total of 0 times. None, nada, el-zippo. But now that I’ve mentioned it, I’ll probably need it this weekend ! \ud83d\ude42 lol And yeahhhhh, you’re right, whatever … there are a few sentences in the above letter that I totally made up … I’m sure you can figure out which ones ! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Anyways, that’s what was currently in my purse before I started to do the inventory in order to answer this particular questiooooon ! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
