What bag did you use and how many lenses did you carry on any given day?

So I got one of the FA31's recently.
Damn.
Seriously, at 1.8 it is sharp. I really don't need a lens of this stature, but I find it hard to let go of. Like Bilbo in The Fellowship, it compels me to hold onto it, even in the face of seemingly overwhelming logic.
I plan on doing a vs match against my super tak 28... and then not selling it because reasons.
