Less fuzzy - the metal bit on the strap of my briefcase broke. So I no longer have a working shoulder strap. Which is going to suck when I have to lug my laptop to Stamford tomorrow.
Can I meet up with you and loan you my backpack? It is specifically for the lugging of laptops, with a cozy pouch and all. Not at all business-y, but protective and good.
Your story was very fuzzy. I look forward to its being published!
Okey-doke, whatever works for you. So strange about the strap not breaking but the metal bit going. Any chance like a caribiner (however you spell that little metal lock-thing that climbers use) would hold you over?
Check for an EMS? A Modell's? I know there's a sporting type store around Grand Central, and there's bound to be some around midtown. Outside of the city, I can't help, alas.
Lands End sells a lovely strap and it comes via mail quickly. I break my straps all the time and this is easier than going to the shoemaker to have the clip repaired.
We should also double-check the top of the coat closet--there may either be a professional-enough backpack you can use, or a bag with an extra strap you can steal until we find a replacement.
