That's right, folks. I've been desk-less this whole semester. And while I don't typically do homework at a desk, I have been pretty disorganized this semester. I didn't even know that Tyler was planning on getting me one until last night! He found it on Craig's List for $10--and it's exactly what I've been needing.
When Tyler went to go pick this desk up (this morning) he realized that it wouldn't entirely fit inside our car. . . so he carried it for seven blocks! (What a stud!)
Then he ran back to pick up the car (and the desk drawers).
So, I got to have the fun today of organizing my new space. Check this out. This is my "old technology" drawer and my "most frequently used" drawer.
Note that you can see my old laptop, old iPod, a CD, matches, thumb tacks, rubber bands. . . all old technologies that have somehow been improved on or changed. (Ok, so-- I'm not sure how the tacks and rubber bands fit into the old technology category, but they do fit into this drawer, so there they shall be.)
In the drawer to the right, you can see my writing utensils, my moleskine notebook that keeps me on top of life, chapstick, charging cords. . . things that I will be reaching in my drawer to most frequently use.
It's perfect!!
Soon, we may be adding a little desk lamp to the picture, but until then, I'll keep using the candle that Tyler's Aunt Heidi gave us at our wedding (which smells delicious!!).
Anyway, I just wanted to say a big thank you to my sweet husband for the thoughtful surprise!
Also: I found this video while trying to find the pictures I took of my desk. I'm pretty sure that you guys will enjoy this one. . . :)

Seven blocks??!! I am impressed! Love this post.... Now I know why I got up in the middle of the night to read your blog.
I am impressed too. Cute desk too.
i thoroughly enjoyed the video :)
Thanks, Karen! (I left a comment on my mom's blog because I saw this post there first. Shame on me.)
So, is there a name for a super hero who wields a desk around? If Tyler were green we could call him the Hulk, He-Man might work but I'm not sure it completely fits. I like the "Captain" super hero names, like Captain America, or Captain Universe, definitely NOT Captain Underpants! Or I just made up one of my own, Captain Deskover (pronounced discover!)? What do you think?!
Or...DOCTOR DESKO!! (like disco)
Aunt Mar and Tyler, I think we should combine the two. Captain Deskover PhD. That, I think, would be perfect!
I love Dr. Desko... Or Dr. Deskover!
Either way, the doctor had enough "patients" to get the job done. I hear it was 21 blocks in the drifting snow with a 60 mph head wind and up hill all the way!
Way to go Doc D!
65 mph, actually, and a 35% grade.
Tyler,
Hahahahaha!
Karen,
Your blog looks so lovely and Christmas-y! I bought some wrapping paper that resembles the print on the right of your page!
