Eric Spring lives in New York City. He has poor vision and cooks a good egg. Most of his money is spent on live music and produce. He usually wears plain, solid color sweatshirts without hoods because he assumes loud patterns make people expect something big. Typically, he'll bypass a handshake and go straight for the hug.

Consider pockets, purses, backpacks, totes, and clutches. They vary in their sizes, zipper approach, use of leather, and the extent to which sequins and rhinestones are involved.

But common to all is that they allow everybody to carry bizarre sentimental crap and not worry about strangers judging them for it.
