I'll have to remember to do that, as I'm horribly procrastinatory and will probably need nagging about my word count, assuming I don't just give up altogether three days into November. (I still have no idea what I'm even going to be writing about, so that's a very real possibility.) :)

I paid like $25 for mine, I think I got a good deal, esp. since it has the keys to the locks (a lot of the ones at the sale didn't)

yep, you will notice most of it is pretty flat-ish too, catalogs, papers, DVR's, brochures, etc.

it was a huge massive pile and I had to keep readjusting it to be able to barely move my mouse and yeah, even with a massive desk like I have (it's a good 4ft deep and 5 feet long) it was a ton of crap....

btw, I am so terrified to open those petri dishes, we are searching for our microscope now to investigate.

My desk has a back with a second level on it, and I have a cabinet next to it that I use as an extension to my desk. It's pretty tidy (more tidy than my roomates, that is), but I have a bunch of shit, here's a list:

1. two 19" monitors (do alot of video editing)
2. A Dell Deimension E510 (terrible idea. I knew not to buy Dell, but I saw the price and said "Oh I'll add onto it!" not considering I wouldn't have any money to do so)
3. A silver coffee mug I bought at the local dollar store. Guess how much it cost me.
4. all four of my text books.
5. a MAD magazine
6. a Pentax Spotmatic F (currently broken, but has expensive film in it)
7. bus schedule
8. a cheap ass HP ink printer
9. About fifty random books
10. Two knock off Tupperware boxes.
11. Several comedy albums
12. a bunch of notebooks.
13. a CD case filled with good music.
14. Li-ion battery in charger
15. home-made speakers
16. Dumb ass video games
17. Sticky notes
18. Kleenex
19. Keys
20. Sharpies
21. Cell phone (I HATE IT!)
22. Box of checks
23. Stack of SD and Microdrives.
24. Crappy Wal-mart lamp
25. Absolutelly ancient alarm clock from Sears. My grandparents got it when digital alarm clocks were new, it sat in their garage for eighteen years until I asked to have it to fix. I was disappointed to find that the electronics hadn't rotted at all.
26. Delicous V8
27. And delicous mountain dew!
28. Trusty soldering iron (not supposed to have it, it violates my lease contract, but to hell with them. Need my soldering iron.)
29. Oh, wireless keyboard.
30. Wireless optical mouse.
31. Formerly cool expensive DSLR Nikon. It's obsolete, and the electronics are crapping out. I would fix it, but the whole thing is too complex for me.
32. Oh yeah...an iPod.
33. Delicous LUDENS!

And 92 on mine, darn.

Recounting and elaborating, i got my count up to 84. If I listed all of the books and CD's seperately, I can get 114. However, a lot of the stuff is now on the floor, in the garbage, or even where it belongs (*gasp*).

I swear, without this thread everything would have just kept on accumilating on my desk till it broke. It was already bending, seeing as its just a slab of wood propped up by filing cabinets on either side.

If I wanted I could beat that, by telling you that the poker chips are in 4 different containers, that gains me 3 more items.

Yeah, that was really insane. The scrolling down just wouldn't stop... *shakes head*

I'm bummed because as of a few weeks ago I could have made a list about half as long as Smunkee's, but I cleaned and tidied up and now the desk is actually back to being usable as a desk again. How boring.

There's 7 desktops, 7 keyboards, 7 mice(mouses?), a phtotcopier and an overheard projector on the desk I'm at now. Oh, and my keys, someone's headphones, bits of a newspaper and a cup of something(coffee possibly).

There's not a hell of a lot of things on my desk. Most of it is my computer paraphenalia, a few books, some cool beer bottles that I washed out after I drank them, this year's tax return, my mobile, a screwdriver, 2 pens, a stapler, my french homework & my water bottle.

Well, I actually lied. I missed out something; something that has escaped from its usual home and is cluttering the entire desk with its untidiness.

I left my holepunch out.
Disgraceful. *shakes head*

Do you have a lazy dog?

no, one of my hobbies is getting free stuff, and there is this promotion going on now where you can get a free dog toy and dog pedometer, I only really wanted the dog toy because it was cool.

a really cool ball....

you can see it in the picture, that's from the site.

I won't make him wear the pedometer, it's got a clock on it though (why does a dog need to know what time it is? I have no clue) so I am going to keep it for myself and put it on my keychain...

Yes, I'd keep the pedometer for myself, too.

things on my desk

being bored... while cleaning house, I thought "what would make cleaning my desk more fun?!" well, I think typing a list of everything I find on here for you all to read... by the end you will be like "WTF?! she is messy"

LOL

<list of more stuff than some people have in their entire room. V funny :D >

what's on your desk?

I don't want to bore everyone, so here's everything within two inches of the keyboard:

A glass beaker, marked with red wine
A slip of paper with a quote on it.
A universal remote-control which has never worked
A piece of paper with odds for the World Cup on it
A plastic slip for CD's
A SATA cable.
A black felt-tip pen.
A broken pair of sunglasses
Some husk from some garlic
A partially-sucked nicotine lozenge
A purple rubber band
Another slip of paper with a URL written on it
A bit of aluminium foil (IS THIS PART OF YOUR BRAIN??)
A lima bean (white, shiny ... that's a lima bean isn't it?)
... hey, this is bulk fun! ...
My mobile phone
A foil packet with one aspirin in it
A cotton-bud stick (Q-tip)
An empty nicotine-lozenge package
A miniature ziplock packet
A flash disk
A short pencil with a rubber band folded around it
A pair of spectacles
Another pair of spectacles, without lenses.
A loop of paper with "$250" written on it. No money there.
A medium-length pencil.
Half a plastic straw, with rubber glue on it.
A CD-slip, empty.
A thin manual for ... hang on ... a graphics card.
The tag from a pair of underpants.
The other half of the plastic drinking-straw.
A piece of wood, with rubber glue on one end.
Two computer mice.
A second keyboard (under this one)
My hands.

Some part of all of those objects is within two inches of the keyboard I am using right now.
Do I win? :)
