Tote bag and Moleskine consumerism

gategrrlI am such a bag-ho. Er, bag-a-holic? Or perhaps bag dependent...yeah.
Anyhow, I've been drooling over the simplest things...the new Lands' End tote bags. Especially the one in orange. My kids go on so many overnights that I'd love to get them a tote each, even if Mermaid already has a bag she likes to use! And maybe order one for Roadtrips (not that I go on many these days) a few for the grocery store (I already have tons of reusable bags thanx to Trader Joes) and one or two for the beach/daytrips! *sigh*
It's not as if I use all the bags I own. I already have a large size tote that I packed up midsummer for the beach or for the waterpark, but neither child wanted to go to either by that point! So it sat in my room, all packed up with no place to go. :-( I may have to repurpose that tote for other things, like storing my Asus, writing pads, pens and other paraphanalia for those rare times I go to the coffee shop now to write.
My other vice, blank books and date books was expressed earlier this week. The local Borders now carries the full line of Moleskine date/calender and blank/lined books, and I drooled at the sight of this one. After a week and half, I finally had the chance to go back and grab it. Now...I have to start USING my growing collection of blank books and stuff. Or maybe I'll just buy a tote and plunk them all in it.
