A Pain in the Ass (Literally)

My wallet is worn out, I don't know why I never have any money it, I guess just routine use of carrying around government issued IDs and for collecting and distributing business cards and of course the pictures of my beautiful children (mostly one because the older one is in college and school pictures have stopped). Maybe it is worn out because as fast as I put money into it, it gets taken out.

So I went out and found a new wallet. I think it is easier (except for the financing) to buy a car. You have to find one that has enough pockets for all your needs, then do you want a bifold or a trifold, maybe a flat card holder with a money clip attached. Color and material, along with supple or rigid build. Plastic picture holder (will be ripped and not hold anything within six months), clear ID pocket holder (not sure why they even make this as an option, everyone will just make you take it out of the holder because no one can read through the clear plastic), single or divided bill compartment (like I carry enough money to have to section it into different divisions), and maybe a secret compartment or two.

Once the choices are made and the new wallet with the closest matching criteria is found and purchased, you spent some time moving the "essentials" into new spots, because they never convert directly, and then deciding what to keep and what not as this is an excellent time to clean out and condense. Once this is finished, now comes the pain in the ass. It will take weeks maybe months for this new money carrier to fit properly against your butt. You will not be able to sit comfortable, no ease of putting into or taking out of the pocket, it will chaff when you walk, and when it is out of your pocket, you will not know where anything is and when set down you don't recognize it.

I hope I found a good one and it fits my needs, and the break in period is minimal...

I got this one.
