I can't find the time either my friend, especially with my long distance relationship. Good to read you again, and you make single life seem grand. lol

Thanks Lensman. It was quite romantic in a chilly, snowy, type of way.

Another very funny post. So many things I can relate to. Nothing worse than having your personal desktop disorder re-ordered, is there? And I laughed at the thunderbolt part. Oh, yes....
You know, shovelling snow in the moonlight sounds quite nice, except for the shovelling part ;-)

Mmmm but the question is...
how long ago did she move them? You did not tell us that part...
But seriously, my husband drives my crazy doing things like that! I can't stand it when he decides to move things around in the kitchen or elsewhere. Like, do I go out in the garage and rearrange his tools?

I think you share the same issues with every other blogger, Merry Anne.

Darn it, you noticed my frazzling, Pat_B. Believe me, I can Frazzle with a capital 'F' in neon lights.

Thank you Frankenkitty, everything went well. I still have notes for articles I wrote 30 years ago - call me a packrat.

Me too, Taps. I hardly ever use them nowadays, but I like them being there. Call me old-fashioned.

Aren't hard copies wonderful, Blanche. Ell has decided to swap printers as mine...er...make that hers now, has fax, photos and all the bells and whistles and hers...er...make that mine, is only a printer. I don't mind, as she's the one making the money. You know, we have a scrabble board on the bottom shelf of the coffee table and we keep promising ourselves to find time for a game - and we don't.

we all win
with this blogit post! Talk about a writer's natural state of mind. Diddling with everything else to avoid the actual project, spazzing out about some artifact misplaced. If we weren't obsessive with a capital O, we wouldn't be in this quark in the first place... Glad to know I'm not the only one who frazzles... :)pat

When my mom used to clean my desk
at work, it drove me up the wall. I don't want anyone touching my desk stuff. I just had built in book shelves put in to alleviate some of my office clutter, and I'm actually throwing notes away. For some reason, I cling to my notes for years. I hope your surgery goes well

Johnmcnab, I couldn't survive without my dictionary, Roget's, Bible, and concordance. I know these things are all on the internet and I have them marked there as my favorites but, I still have to have the real things available at arm's length..

John,
Qintar is one of my favorite Scrabble words, a good one to pull out of your sleeve when you're stuck without a U and on the brink of havingn to deduct 10 pts. from your total score. Which I hate to do. M and I have a constant tug of war over the desk space, too. What goes where. Computers are great, but when the dratted things go down, then hard copy saves you.
