Richard Moore Posted December 30, 2009 Report Posted December 30, 2009 Once a year, around this time, whether it needs it or not, I'm forced to clean up my office as it turns into the cloakroom for the hordes on New Years Day. As it's finally tidy(ish?), I thought I'd post a picture and encourage others to do the same so that we can see where we spend a good portion of our lives and, I guess, where we post on TIJ from. So here's mine...where's yours? Download Attachment: Office09x004.jpg 130.85 KB Happy New Year all!

mgbinspect Posted December 30, 2009 Report Posted December 30, 2009 Nice office Richard! I've been doing the same thing, more because I have the time and partially because, for some unkown reason, I need to enter the new year with that false sense of order in my life.

Robert Jones Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 Ok, I am joining this just so I guilt myself into cleaning my office area. I know there is a recliner in there somewhere that I haven't sat in all year. I will revisit this post once the cleanup has been completed. Of course that may be sometime mid 2010, but I will post more pics[:-party] Click to Enlarge 56.59 KB Click to Enlarge 49.85 KB
Bain Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 Mine's pretty simple. The gals in the photos are Liz Phair and Ani DiFranco, both of whom I've met.

The metal sculpture on the wall is by Karen DeSantis, who lives in Boulder. The table is scratched and worn, and one day I'll ask Kurt how to restore the veneer. Click to Enlarge 45.49 KB
Erby Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 I don't care what my wife told y'all. You ain't a gonna guilt me into cleaning my office. You ain't. John, You forget about the hulk up there on the armoire. Who is the pink guy up there about to push the gray guy off? -
Neal Lewis Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 John, Exile in Guyville is buried on my desk waiting to go into itunes. Gotta love the women artists.

Bain Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 John, Exile in Guyville is buried on my desk waiting to go into itunes. Gotta love the women artists. A friend of mine went to Oberlin College with Liz Phair. I don't think it's possible to be a man, and to meet her, and not be totally enchanted by her. (In a completely healthy and unweird way, of course.)

Tom Raymond Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 Richard, your office is nice but I've got too much ADD to sit in front of windows and get anything done. Gary, I've got you beat; at my day job I have a sales desk that looks like that because I'm rouinely working on multiple projects (and I'm hangin' here if I'm not, so it never gets cleared), a kitchen design desk that is similar but has more samples than papers on it, and at home I share a desk with the wife for her biz and the household administration. The home desktop has a laptop, two PCs, a Mac, two printers, bins for the print biz, the home bills, and boy's schoolwork. I get two drawers in the file cabinet. Jerry, did the former Gov. sell you his desk?[] It's very nice but a bit over the top for a guy that explores attics and crawls for a living. Hee, hee. John, the art deco theme is cool, does it run through the whole house? (I see the door hardware) Robert, I wish just one of my desks was as clean as yours. Mark, your secret is safe with me[] Tom Oh yeah, Erby, you really ought to listen to the missus[:-dev3]

It's almost halfway sorta cleaned up. Shame on me.
Marc Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 This is mine, but to be truthful, our two cats seem to think that they rule in my office so I prefer the living room. They will sleep on my keyboard if I leave either laptop open. Click to Enlarge 53.02 KB Marc

I'm a sucker for all the cool stuff on display in the Rejuvenation Hardware catalog.

Richard Moore Posted December 31, 2009 Author Report Posted December 31, 2009 ... notice the nice concrete mixer; everyone should have one in their office! Yeah, saw that. Did a WTF doubletake. I'm guessing you make one hell of a margarita.
hausdok Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 Jeez, Except for Les' office area, the rest of you guys have offices that are far too neat. What a bunch of sickos! Call the padded meat wagon, Loui - the bug house just emptied all over North America! ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike
