Meme: Objects Around Us, workplace edition

[wshaffer]

As I said in my last post, I wanted to do the same meme, but looking at my desk at work. Sitting in my cube now, here are some of the more interesting things I can see:

• 1 large coffee mug with VMware logo, currently holding French roast coffee with a splash of soy milk


• 1 coffee mug with Thermo Finnigan logo, currently holding a collection of pens and pencils


• 1 black coffee mug emblazoned with the acronym "RTFM" (as pictured in my user icon), currently empty


• Postcards of Caravaggio's Head of Medusa, Artemisia Gentileschi's Beheading of Holofernes, Chagall's I and the Village, and Rousseau's Sleeping Gypsy, tacked to the cube wall


• 2 foam stress balls, 1 hot pink, 1 neon orange, with smiley faces printed on them


• A rotring Core fountain pen, fine nib, filled with black ink, and a Lamy Al-Star green anodized aluminum fountain pen, fine nib, filled with purple ink


• 2 foam gliders, decorated to look like the space shuttle, that were given away as swag at a conference I attended


• A poster depicting Daleks against the Manhattan skyline


• A tiny toy black Dalek. Its head was glued on backwards, so the poor thing can't see where it is shooting (which is at the foam spaceshuttles)


• A small notebook with a blue leather cover, purchased in the San Lorenzo street market in Florence. It serves as emergency backup memory.


• A junior-size Circa notebook, which holds my calendar and work notes


• half a dozen blank pads of paper, ranging in size from 3" x 5" to 11" x 17"


• a terra cotta pot with 5 tiny succulents, 3 of which are looking ill and 2 of which are flourishing

In short: caffeine-addicted Doctor Who fan with foutain pen fetish and pronounced anti green-thumb.
