My purse is usually messy and full of odd bits of paper (notes, phone numbers, receipts), but besides that:
wallet (money, change, bank cards, store cards, receipts)
keys
cell phone
small mirror
moisturizer
hand cream
subway pass
mascara
foundation
lip balm/gloss
kleenex
couple of pens
couple of pain killers (mild, for headaches)
hair band
4 hair clips
I think that's it!
Weirdest thing I have carried in my purse: my tooth?

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
