As much as I love the summer, and all the free time I have, one of my faaaaavorite things is going back-to-school supply shopping. The second I step into Office Depot and smell the plastic-y freshness of brand new binders and Sharpie retractable highlighters, I’m instantly in heaven. However, I don’t exactly get the same vibe of excitement coming from my mom. As I’m running around the store trying out every office chair and looking for a new laptop, she’s over in the “kids” section searching for markers, folders, and number 2 pencils…boring! She always tries to convince me that we need to “stick to the necessities,” but I have a different idea of what I really need for Fall 2010. Here are some of my favorite online picks.

The best pen you will ever place your fingers on. Makes my handwriting look like I am a TRUE professional.

Binders with zippers are the ONLY way to go. You don’t want anything falling out. This one has a built-in calculator, which is sweet, along with plenty of space for business cards, cell phones, etc.!

Finally, the laptop bag. I have to keep up my grown man image, therefore, although the ninja turtle backpack is ideal, I think I may have to step it up this year with this classy bag.
To make mom happy, I will let her buy me the traditional sticky notes, pencils, pens, markers, paperclips, and scissors, but one day she’s going to have to realize that a working man needs the proper supplies to accommodate his success!
