[pygmalion]

[cocodrilo]

green grapes? :?
Thompson seedless, very common on the west coast. EXCELLENT!

[peachexploration]

Yup, the best afternoon snack! Yummy! :D

[BritishBlackDancer]

Besides my computer, what else do I have on my Desk?

1.)A picture of me and my Baby Boy Jan
2.)My cell Phone (always with me)
3.)My infamous bottle of Bule Gatorade :lol:
4.)Old retire pair of dance shoes (My babies)
5.)A nice hot bag of Popcorn right by my side

[pygmalion]

Yup, the best afternoon snack! Yummy! :D

On sale here, 99 cents a pound this week. Maybe I should get some. I have a pile of red seedless grapes in the fridge, though. I like to get the red because they're more consistently sweet. :?

[peachexploration]

Yeah, I tend to lean toward the sour fruits. The green ones will definitely wake up your mouth. :arrow: :x

:lol:

[pygmalion]

Yep. :lol: :lol: :lol:

[cocodrilo]

Grapes are considered a delicacy here and are absurdly expensive. I have not purchased grapes in Japan my entire 20 years here, can you imagine? I can't wait till fall when I go to Hawaii and I will GORGE on fruit!

[Twilight_Elena]

-School books, school books, school books. It's exam time, folks.
-My vanilla Body Shop eau de toilette
-My little red book. In it there's the poetry work of an entire 6-month period of tyranny and oppression. I.e. I wrote all that during my schoolwork breaks and even during lessons. Mostly during lessons. :roll:
-cellphone, because we all need the psychological support
-my Latin heels, because they give me strength and courage and sometimes I just put them on because they feel nice. :D Something like Dorothy's slippers, I reckon.

ON your desk? :shock:

[pygmalion]

-- pile of random papers

-- overdue library book

-- sticky notes all over computer terminal (a bunch, but I'll count them as one thing)

-- a roll of velcro (I have absolutely no idea why -- it's just there :lol: :lol: )

-- box and other packaging materials from new cell phone

[cocodrilo]

-- a roll of velcro (I have absolutely no idea why -- it's just there :lol: :lol: )

Yeah, you never know when that roll of velcro might come in handy! 8) :lol:

[BritishBlackDancer]

I feel you !! I really do! I think everyone need a roll of velcro near there desk at all times(lol) :cheers: Cheers to that Love

[pygmalion]

Velcro. Don't leave home without it. :lol:

[cocodrilo]

I need a roll of duct tape to remove all the bleedin' cat hair from my clothes!

[Rosa]

I use a roller of sticky paper for the same purpose. You can buy it in local stores and get refills when it's finished.

Rosa :)

[cocodrilo]

No food nearby. Damn I'm hungry! :twisted:

[Twilight_Elena]

-my Latin heels

Twilight Elena
ON your desk? :shock:

I confess. I actually had them under my desk but for a moment there I was overcome by an panicked thought of them dissapearing in a puff of smoke and had to place them within my grasp. :P
You know how hard it is to find good Latin heels these days... Not to mention they're a very dear gift from a very dear friend of mine. :D

*shrug* What can I say? I'm paranoid.

[Sagitta]

You're not!! I agree with you. Very difficult to find something just right when you are very particular. Tkes me months to get shoes I like then I wear them down to shreds..

[wuthering]

I have a pile of red seedless grapes in the fridge, though. I like to get the red because they're more consistently sweet. :?

Why keep fruit in the fridge? It will lose some of its taste. Try keeping them in a dark and cold place in a box, like under the sink in a cupboard for instance. Especially if they're not ripe yet.

ON:
- a pair of broken down scissors
- digital camera
- car's insurance
- USB flash drive
- a thing called "livret de famille", a common "ID booklet" for a family, that every married couple gets

It gets hot here, so I keep some fruits, like grapes, berries, peaches, melons, in the fridge or they spoil very quickly. My apples and bananas and other hardy fruits don't get refrigerated. So it depends. 8)

[wuthering]

Aha, you're right. Makes me want to have some strawberries :twisted:

[pygmalion]

Come on over. I have strawberries, grapes, cherries, watermelon, canteloupe, a couple kinds of apples and some bananas right now. I really like fresh fruit. :oops: :lol: (btw, I ate my last orange for breakfast. Time to go shopping. :car: :lol: )

Oh, and I've added a phone and a couple stuffed animal toys to my desktop. Soon, there'll be no room for my computer. :lol: :lol:

Nah. That's what laptops are for. How do you think I manage to fit all the randomness on my desk? :twisted:

[Swingolder]

At work, I did have:

Two candy dishes (one with hard candy, one with chocolate)
A Frank Sinatra doll (he held my business cards in his hands)
Pictures of the grandkids
A leather lizard
Two Mardi Gras clowns from New Oleans.

But a couple of months ago, I got really annoyed with my boss and took ALL my personal stuff home and now just have regular office supplies on my desk (boring).

[pygmalion]

Amazing how few bosses catch onto those kinds of signals. I bet if you quit tomorrow, your boss would be shocked and say he/she didn't see it coming. Sheesh.
