So to the amusement of all, here's what cluttered crap one would find on the desk in front of me:
- A giant red soup mug, which I drink my tea and coffee from
- A tall middy glass
- An empty bottle of benadryl, to ward away passing airborne illnesses
- Vouchers from the local Workers Club
- A printer, Epson 1270, which prints up to A3+ size
- My Rabbitohs library bag from kindergarten
- An A4 drawing tablet, bought cheap from Aldi's
- White Ipod
- Speakers, which only purpose are to act as a port for my headphones
- 2 Spindles of blank CDs
- $9.20 in silver
- Wide screen Asus monitor, 19 inch
- PC, custom built, black case with the side ripped off for quick access
- mp3/avi player, a Christmas present, filled with Family Guy episodes
- A huge pile of photographs behind my monitor, all waiting to be scanned and cleaned
- A booklet on Tarot cards, to help with the design of the deck I'm making for my portfolio
- Superman movie DVD (original 70's one, not that Routh shit)
- Steak knife
- Office XP CD, along with about 20 other random discs
- Phillips head screwdriver (2, because one always goes missing)
- A lamp, which I hate, because it gives me headaches
- Sewing machine oil
- A green plastic milkshake cup, because any smaller cup is wasting my time
- A can of furniture polish, being mocked by the mess on my desk
- Waitresses album - "Wasn't tomorrow wonderful" (vinyl)
- Scanner, A4 IBM
- Twisties crumbs
- A fork I bent in half without even using mind powers
- energy saving lightbulb
- My old mobile phone
- marriage certificates from the 1840's in England
- Sketch pad
- 3 pens, including one for the drawing tablet
- Batman comic from 1986, in mylar bag with backing board
- Time Magazine (9-11 issue) in mylar
- Ticket to last week's South v Bulldogs game
- Various pieces of mail
- Whatever else is in the pile of photos
Quite obviously I need to tidy up and decide on a filing system beyond putting stuff behind my monitor. A good thing my work desk is an old dining room table. Even better that my chair is a big comfy couch, with my mouse sitting on a stool beside me.

Damn you!
I really thought I had you beat there.
BTW I got my idea from my friend Gretchen.She boasts an empty tin of Spam on her desk. Hadn't thought of that, had you?
Anyway, clearly I place third.
Maybe my next blog needs to be about that very scary cake tin cupboard with the toaster in it. *shudder*
