Mercury Retrograde Baggage

Mercury Retrograde Baggage

Many years ago, I was shopping and I happened across a piece of gear I thought I would like. It was a little zipper bag, from a well-known outdoor gear purveyor, and the bag looked cool. Zippers, light nylon construction, straps, bells, whistles, figuratively speaking, and pockets galore, as if it was designed for tactical tech deployment.

It is a cool looking gear bag. Next to useless, but really cool looking. What happens, sorting through my bin of currently unused baggage, I find this bag, been several years now, and I bought the bag when Mercury was Retrograde, so it turns up, when Mercury is Retrograde, and I toy with that tactical pouch.

There’s a series of elastic bands, over-pockets, and the little clamshell-type of case has a second zip compartment in it, and it all appears well-thought out. For what? I don’t know.

Part of this deal is that I purchased this baggage when Mercury was retrograde. Part of this, though, is that there are bunch of appealing appearing appendages, but none of this is functional in a manner that works for my style.

I’m more “grab and go” and this is a “zip it, lock it down, and lock it away” kind of accessory.

I carry various cables, chargers, adaptors, plugs, and assorted technical crap I used to carry most near every day. Think “grab and go,” rather than “grab and stow.”

My grab-bag has to have, as of this moment, a cable for a phone, cable for a watch, and a cable for a tablet. Then I’ve got to include a slim dual-port USB wall-charger. Seems like all of that would fit into the tactical (looking) gear-bag — yeah, no.

Might miss it this time, but then, maybe not. I streamlined my work requirements so I could perform at a maximum level with a minimum of fuss.

As an exercise, it works, and as a mental relief, thinking through what I need, that helps, too. Mercury Retrograde is always good time to review. Amusing, how that stow-and-go baggage pops up when Mercury is Retrograde, as a subtle reminder.

If only there was a manual.
