Welcome to Brad's online memory archives.

New Old Bag

When I travel by air, I like to dress in a suit and tie. I think sometimes people treat you differently when you look nice.

When I fly, my consistent carry on has been a wide mouth duffel bag that I’ve had for years. It’s awesome because the top has wires in it that open the bag wide enough for me to pack it easily. The only problem is that it’s made of canvas, and doesn’t exactly match the dressiness level of my suit and tie attire in airplanes.

I decided I would look for a wide mouth bag that looked a little nicer. Cyber Monday seemed like a nice day to do some internet shopping. It was. Not only did I find a good bag, I got a good deal on it. It’s made of black leather, and looks very nice.

The bag arrived yesterday. Woo hoo! I thought maybe it would be smaller than my old bag, but it’s not. They’re the same size. Nice!

The Gus is for scale.

    That is a very nice bag! Way to get a good deal. I have an unhealthy obsession with bags and travel, despite the fact I never leave town.

    Has Gus been inside it? Does he get to keep the old bag?

    You travel in a suit and tie? That is awesome! You look like one of those swanky business people that I envy.

    Classy! I’ve heard dressing nicely can score you an upgrade to First Class.
    May you be so blessed.

    (I don’t know if I used that twrm correctly. Also, can I please have the poor man’s duffle? I LOVE it!)
