The perks of a 40-hour work week

On Friday I was upgraded to a bigger desk at work. A desk with more than one drawer, and a huge shelf, and space for more post-its than I could ever hope for.* I love it.

The problem is, this space wants more than just notebooks and files and post-its. It wants personal stuff: photos and plants and tchotchkes and toys. Throughout the day, people kept wandering by telling me that my desk needed some life.

So what do you keep on your desk? Any recommendations? Right now all I have is a tiny toy mouse.


*I love post-its, and on my first day at this job when I saw how many post-its everyone was using, I knew I was going to fit right in.
