Rebuilt Office


JamesSavik

551 views

Back around Halloween I was hit with some minor flooding. Anyone who has been hit by flooding can tell you it's never minor. It sucks. It's a major hassle. I have finally gotten things worked out.

 

One of my aims was to re work my office and after a solid two weeks of work (which is still ongoing) here are the results.

 

I've installed a U-shaped desk in one end of the room, added bookshelves and an entertainment center from this millennium. It's been fun but a lot of work.

This is the left side of the "U". It's cluttered as I am still getting things settled. That's my laptop which has been keeping things going.

This is the right side of the "U" with 2 gigs of data storage space, the network underneath and a whiteboard.

Bookshelves! It's great to have it all in a bookshelf and NOT on the floor. The :icon_cat: is upset as he no longer has piles of books to knock over.

My TV and stereo. I like to listen to death metal when I write.

 

BUh-wa-ha-ha-ha!

 

I've often heard people say why live somewhere where there are tornadoes/floods/hurricanes/earthquakes/tsunamis/stampeding water buffalo but the truth is that disaster can hit anywhere. You just have to decide to build it back better than it was before.

I love everything...except the curtains. James. blink.gif Are you sure you're gay?biggrin.gif

 

The picture of Jim Morrison and the record player (for those of you who are young, it's a primitive audio device that uses a stylus to read low-definition audio from large vinyl disks) are awesome.

Those curtains are DEFINITELY gay. I'm not sure about the swords, though.

 

Are those VIDEOCASSETTES on that media rack? Where are your eight tracks?

 

And just what kind of dentistry are you performing with that lamp?

 

Nice office James. I just redid my workspace, I know how satisfying it is. You must be really happy to have all the flood stuff taken care of now.

Nice office, James. Floods are good for something provided you have insurance. You get all new furniture and toys.

 

It's amazing that you have that "lived in" look in only two weeks. :P

No- what you are seeing in the cabinet is a bound volume of CDs.

No dentistry. I use it to work on computers and gadgets.

Yep- I'm sure that I'm gay. The previous owners taste in drapes was questionable. I'll replace them when I get a round tuit.

Albums are making a come back. A lot of people like that rich analog sound and many of us never left. Sure I've got CDs by my six original Doors albums are a treasure.

 

There's another picture that you can't see of the Dark Side of the Moon.

I have a universal remote! FEAR ME. :devil:

 

I had them all together because I want to put them all away in the same place. It's the only way to keep track of them all.

 

1- logitech universal remote

2- Mitsubishi stereo

3- Mitsubishi DVD

4- Yamaha CD player

5- Mediacenter PC

6- DirectTV satellite remote

7- Toshiba TV remote

Universal Remote!

 

Three Remotes for Ellen, stoner-chick so high,

Seven for the p0rn-lords in their halls of bone,

Nine for geeks, you don't want to know why.

One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne,

In the land of Mississippi where the shadows lie.

One Remote to rule them all, One Remote to find them,

One Remote to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them,

In the land of Mississippi where the shadows lie.

Gay, huh? But not so vain as to tactically hide the "For Dummies" series of books on the shelves...thumbsdownsmileyanim.gif...seriously, James, others are supposed to think you're a smart miracle worker on that stuff, not the other way around...wink.gif

For Dummies books should be called For Smart People Who Want Results. :P
