In my pockets: Keys (work, car, mailbox, roofrack, a key for each of two bikes' locks). Swiss Army "officer" (there are three tools for opening alcohol) knife that I found digging a hole on the beach when I was 5. USB stick. Wallet. a "randl" my sister-in-law bought me (Etsy?). She's seriously the best gift-buyer I've ever known. My son is a close second. Change. I like having change in my pocket. It's atavistic and OCO, but I like giving cashiers $15.12, and getting a single nickel back. (often) Sony Nex camera with an Exakta-mount Zeiss 58mm lens.
On the bike: One less thing than I need at the moment. I do now have toolkits, pumps, gloves, and hats on both my commuting bikes, and a blinky clipped to every bike in the house.
