"And I said, I don't care if they lay me off either, because I told, I told Bill that if they move my desk one more time....

then, then I'm, I'm quitting, I'm going to quit. And, and I told Don too, because they've moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were married, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire."

- Milton, Office Space

I think my desk moved for the last time today. Well, the last time in the foreseeable future, anyway. Which was lovely because I got to put up posters and poems from my friends Sarah and Becky, and feel a little more grounded in the reality that is my life, and enjoy the fact that I have a whole wall of windows... I think the next time I think about moving homes during a time when I'm moving offices, a kind friend should point out to me that this is not a good idea.
