I am!! I just logged on and literally out loud said "Heh???" I'm hoping it's an April Fool's thing? If not TPF will likely be sued by Facebook.
Oh thank goodness! But still, how annoying!Only an April fools jokeIt will be gone by tomorrow.
I took this shot today as I was waiting for my husband in the doctor's office. This is my seasonal Big Bang flap. This is a great throw around, easy bag to use and it is made from a sturdy, glazed calfskin. It is very roomy and carried everything I needed for the day, with room to spare. 
@cafecreme15 I wanted to thank you because the finger brush you recommend was delivered today and I love it!

So glad you like it!! It's such a game changer if you have difficult or knotty hair.I took this shot today as I was waiting for my husband in the doctor's office. This is my seasonal Big Bang flap.

I have finally been released from tax preparation hell. Our taxes involve (1) crunching massive amounts of detail, (2) snarky exchanges with DH over his lack of documentation and (3) headaches over the failure of Turbotax, It's Deductible, and Apple to play nice together. It is behind me for another year, and I am free. So it is time to get back to the important stuff, like posting on TPF.
I had mentioned that I purchased 3 bags in the first three months of the year. Here is Miss January. She is a Sac a Mallette. I don't know the year but I would guess the 1950s or 1960s. Her nickname is Sammie.
DH loves my silks but he just doesn't get my bags. I concluded that he doesn't have any way to understand them, so I have been trying to educate him on the various facets of bag appreciation. Sammie is hard to understand. I snuck her in the house while he was out of state so that I could get acquainted with her in private. To be honest, I have no idea what I will wear her with other than a vintage Burgundy coat. So I searched for vintage pictures to inspire myself. I realized these pics are great purse training for DH. As I showed him these pictures I could hear him silently saying "If this bag was carried by Zsa Zsa Gabor and Sophia Loren, I guess it is not so weird."
These vintage pictures are so fun, I thought I would share....

@Cordeliere What a great feeling to be done with your taxes! We went to OC to have ours done last week and there were a few minutes when I was literally sweating.
Your Miss January is so chic and functional looking. The leather and color look fabulous together. She is simply gleaming. Looks as though you buffed and conditioned her to a beautiful shine.
Husbands are funny. Mine likes my bags.....but he thinks they all look the same.
