"Even the cat doesn't like the mess. My desk is so messy... "How messy IS it?"

It is SOOO messy you can't see the mess for the mess... It is so messy,

my office has its own mess call. It's favorite dance is "the mess around."

My desk is so messy, the mess had to open a branch mess.

budda bing!

 

I MAY have posted this before but This thread is now 35 pages and so

I am glad that this thread inspired me to take some pictures of my desk. I just realized that, because I leave for college in about a week, these may be the lasting records of my high school-era workspace.

 

Here are the pictures: (click on them for higher quality)

The overall area.

Where most of the productivity happens.

The inks and pens! Yay! Also, I bought the sword in the background in Toledo, Spain.

A closeup of the inks. The picture in the background is one I took in Budapest overlooking the Danube and their parliament building.

My beloved bamboo. It outgrew its original container, so I decided to put it in an Erlenmeyer flask I had laying around. My brother's desk is in the background.

Some of my favorite books, plus my Field Notes calendar!

As if the bamboo wasn't nerdy enough, I have a radian clock. Also, notice Don Quixote and Sancho Panza there too!

Ok, here it goes ... :embarrassed_smile:

 

This is my working desk (one of them) - the left one, in a usual state. I'd rather have messy desk than mess in my head. And of course, this is perfect excuse not to clean it regularly. I didn't have the courage to take pics of the other. It is incarnated chaos. You could find almost everything, except a dead mouse, fresh eggs, ice skates, ...

This is the same desk, as clean as possible.

Yes, I am a fan of spiders.

Is that a Parker 45 in front of the keyboard?

Indeed it is, to be more precise, it is THAT certain pen, I showed you some time ago and you were sure I had P51.

Thnx to FPN, you have realized your mistake.

 

(Yes, we do know each other in person. And it is his "fault" I am here. )

You didnt have to tell this :embarrassed_smile: but in my defence it was only the begining of mine fountain pen days. But on the other hand the great men are not afraid to take responsibility for their mistakes :roflmho:

Why not? You are not perfect and you don't know everything. We learn all the time till we drop dead. Get used to it.

Beside, we are here all friends, right?

 

Not to mention ... you know that I can't help myself not to ....

 

BTW, here are some corrections:

defence -> defense

begining -> beginning

.... because you are my friend.

 

Sorry, professional deformation

Reading through this thread (not all of it, but over half!) as I sit on my bed, laptop on my lap, made me realize that I don't have a desk. Well, I've got two, but there's no room for either in my apartment, so they're both in storage.

 

My desk is my backpack combined with any flat horizontal surface. Commonly a table at a restaurant (where I work, generally), the library or my dining area. I carry my daily use fountain pen with me, and the backpack generally contains paper, current books I'm reading, waterbottle, laptop and needed accessories.

 

If I can remember, I'll try to take a picture at various locations to show my setup and how it changes place to place.

I think a lot of us do this nowadays. That might be an interesting thread unto itself. Show us your "mobile office". Just a thought.

Alright, here's my desk. Yup, those pencil holders are all full of none-fps.

And here's my awesome chair:

And lastly, here are all my notebooks that aren't in my desk or under my bed:

The black thing is my nightstand. It's special.

Whoops, I forgot to show my computer desk:

My parents took the black keyboards <.<

Here's a close-up of my awesome mouse:

nice mouse, my friend took the ball out of one of them and t turns out the can bounce pretty high.

Wonderful thread. The writing slopes, the pen cases, the contrast between organization and functional disorganization was very fun to see. I loved to see peoples configurations between

analog and digital. It's painful to see how great furniture used to be, but I guess there is something to be said for the spatial economy of modern Scandinavian. Thank to all who posted.

I work at home, and I've two desks. One is for my laptop, the other is for longhand writing (e.g. book, notes, letters). Here's my writing desk.

That looks so wonderfully peaceful. It reminds me a bit of my desk at home which is something of a sanctuary for me. Shoot, I need to post it some time .

Here it is. My whole table is a lightbox so when the Editors and Art Directors approve a pencil sketch I can just put it on the light box and ink it {using a fountain pen of course!}.

I love this thread! It's like legalised snooping - and I love to see the places where other people work and play!

 

At home I don't have a desk as such, because our cottage is far too tiny to accommodate one. Instead I use half of the dining table, and my husband and I eat dinner every evening surrounded by all my clutter. If we have guests for dinner (thankfully rarely) it's a major job to shift everything onto the floor so that we call sit down to eat.

 

This is what it looks like at this very moment in time... (since I literally took the photo two minutes ago. Slurp, slurp, let me just take a sip of tea...)
