What's on Your Desk?

Randomness:

I am cleaning out my old office and moving to a new one. I’m finding random words on pieces of paper on my desk. I’ve only been at this desk since November when I returned to work from Mat leave.

There are also a couple of pictures but I don’t have a camera at work so you’ll have to imagine them. One is an embroidered self portrait (I have really great hair) where I am typing on a computer and the title is “I’m Soooo productive.”

The other is a primitive picture I drew of a guy about to smash his keyboard with a sledgehammer. The title for that one is “Hit Any Key” (It’s a template for this shirt I painted, but the drawing is a little more manic looking.).

I also have two pipe cleaner dog skeletons and an awful peridot broach I made. The dogs were leftover from a bendy doll project I did for Elder Daughter for Christmas

and the broach is there because I was hoping if I stared at it long enough I would figure out the one little tweak it needed to transform it from weird and ugly to cool. Hasn’t happened yet despite my best efforts. I really need to contact the people at Craftfail, and call it a day.
