Just been sifting through all the clutter on my desk here at work, and started wondering what all my felow Flash Kitters and Kitettes have lying 'round.
So, in the fashion of all thouse famous threads which run 20 pages and two months long; what have you guys got there beside you?
I found:
1 sandbag frog
2 Plaster casts of my teeth (top and bottom)
3 religous figures (in those nasty kitsch plastic 3D postcards from the seventies).
-e-
Everything not with the puter.
I got a dictionary, a notebook, a pack of chewing gums, an ashtray, (My dad smokes) a telephone.
i've got
stuffed pokemon
a few action figures
empty coke cans
cigeratte ashes
pop tart wrappers
paper work for clients i've long forgot about
dorittos and hot sauce
all in 1 big pile i call my desk
:D
1 "relaxation rock fountain" that my mom sent me.
2 pictures of me on top of a mountain
1 bottle of Visine
1 candy dish - currently filled with scotch mints (makes my desk a favorite visiting spot)
1 tube of blistex (i am an addict - keep tubes everywhere)
how could I have forgotten this one?
1 screw from the lanadmin *LOL*

ive got...
1) 2 empty glasses, previously used for tea.
2) a stack of random cD's
3) pen
4) an incredibly annoying peice of tape on the side, that i cant get off no matter how hard i try :(
i got my puter, my scaner, and about 30 letters and bills I haven't had the time to open.
aside from that i see my -lol- filofax with the big "pimp" bumpersticker across.

I figure if I bought it myself it would be totally embarassing - but as a present from my mommy to brighten up my desk it is cool:)
eulci: i have to ask...(since no one else is taking the bait) why do you have casts of your teeth on your desktop???????
