The realisation that I have grown from one bag of geekery, to two, has made me realise I need to upgrade from the “Bag” to “Uber Bag”, the bloated, well padded, overgrown son of “Bag”.
Uberbag was made in China, very much like Bag. Probably by someone paid a large amount less than me. Uberbag is a Swissgear computer backpack with more pockets than incredibly practical trousers have (you know the type I mean…).
Uberbag contains my life. I had better insure Uberbag against theft, really.
Uberbag contains:
1. My Fujitsu widescreen laptop (don’t worry, it was only £349).
2. My Canon portable printer
3. Chargers for both the above
4. My Nintendo DS lite (and all it’s games – in a case)
5. Charger for the above
6. My cheapo camera
7. A host of cables (USB, Micro USB, Network)
8. My filofax (yes… I AM that old fashioned and I still keep my diary on one of these things)
9. My geek knife
10. A few USB pen drives (64mb, 128mb, 4gb – must copy all these onto the 4gb and give the others away soon)
11. Random paperwork and crap.
Ah. I’m happy.
Oh, I seem to have settled at a 36″ waist (pulled up, none of this gut sticking over malarky), with a weight of around 15st which hasn’t moved in ages. Must try harder. I want to be a comfortable 34″ waist… I was 5 years ago… I can be again.
