Quick check. What's in your pockets?
(if anything, that is.)

I emptied out the pockets of my jeans the other day, and I had something like, 3 grocery receipts; 7 tea bag wrappers; 75 cents in pennies, quarters, dimes, nickels; a couple of twisty ties, 2 crumpled up tissues, a piece of plastic that came off of a cucumber, some bobby pins, a rubber band, and a wallet.

I felt like such a junk-lady! But of course you know, that I am no lady. :P

Does anyone else unintentionally hoard junk in your pockets?

I guess MacGyver would have appreciated my company in a jam. :think:

So, tell us what's in your pockets. No lying allowed! :-)

4. I'm not even going to ask about that piece of plastic
From the cucumber wrapper :D

As for me, I have no pockets at the moment. Just got home from the gym, so I'm still in my workout gear, not to mention sweaty and hot. Off to hit the shower :P
