Let Me Introduce You to My Workspace
This is a picture of the end table next to me right now. It’s a little chaotic, I’ll admit. It’s maybe not how I’d keep things if I were perfectly healthy. But maybe it is. I don’t really know. I’m not the most organized person in the world. Anyway, this is the current state of things.
- Mountain Dew goes really well with weed. (See #6.)
- My phone case/wallet. It’s a really ugly imitation of suede. It’s hideous, but it’s functional.
- My only prescription med right now, and it has nothing to do with cancer. (I know, that’s amazing, right?)
- The earrings Dan picked up for me three days ago at Meijer “just because”. The are cats wearing witch hats.
- The double-sided Sharpie I use to write postcards to voters. One side is fine point. The other side is ultra-fine point.
- My MMJ vape. The changes in weather got me all like “OUCH!” I try to remember to take it every day just in case it feels like shrinking my brain tumor. But some days I forget.
- Vitamin D capsules. The doctor wants me to keep my levels up, and I just don’t spend a whole lot of time outside.
- The Sibley Guide to Birds. If you look closely, you can actually see the bird feeder out there in the back yard.
- An almost empty basket of Halloween candy. It only contained a partial bag of treats, but still. I’ve consumed way too much sugar in the last couple of days. (See #6.)
- Windex electronics wipes for cleaning my laptop and cell phone screen.
- Mary Karr’s The Art of Memoir. I’m using it as a desk reference while I continue writing my memoir.
- The Sassy Bottle™. Izzy likes to be a little jerk and scratch at the furniture. Turns out she likes being sprayed with water too, though. So now it’s a game and we’ve taught her to claw the upholstery for attention. Cats, man.
