Me? I have car keys in my left pocket, along with some spare change. In my right pocket, my cellphone (only because sitting with the belt clip is kinda uncomfortable). In my “cargo pocket” I have my checkbook. Back pocket, wallet.
If I were not in pj’s (it is getting late-ish here on the east coast), I would have:
[sub]UniBall .5mm Medium-tip Black ink pen in my right pocket
3.5" 1.44 Megabyte floppy disk in my left pocket
No Fear leather wallet in back right pocket with chain on front right belt-loop[/sub]
I travel light
I never leave the house without my housekeys, Metrocard, lip balm, and wallet. I’ve forgotten each of those things at least once and regretted it. Taking a train: add something to read. Going to work: add building ID, day planner, and usually lunch.
Used to be I carried everything in my pockets, but now Gunslinger’s bought me a purse, so:
Right front pocket:
Swiss Army knife (which was also a gift from Gun)
Left front pocket:
MS State credential holder thingy, with my school ID, a phone card, and a piece of paper with emergency phone numbers in it. It has an attached keyring, which holds my dorm key, my PO box key, and a keychain Gun made me with a picture of him in it.
Purse -
main pocket: wallet holding $5 cash, credit card, check card, and a bunch of photos and business cards.
front pocket: chapstick, breathmints
pocket on the front flap: change, little flat folding knife
