Great Grand Office Cleanup, Day 1

I think Kris thought I was kidding. I don't know why he thought I was kidding. It certainly wasn't the wink, wink, nudge, nudge, know what I mean that did it. Maybe it was the batting of the eyelashes? Perhaps it was the throw down, temper tantrums and spitting of fire that first clued him in.

Or maybe it was the first box removed from the office.

I cleaned out the first box. It was a small box. In it, I found four magazines I hadn't read (which will contribute to my one-magazine-a-day obsession until I get through all my old magazines), five catalogs from August that I hadn't seen (and which went into the trash), three tampons (how they got there, I have no idea, but I can now put off buying another box of tampons for four months since I have the next one covered), Chris Messina's business card from CivicSpace (which he gave to me at Cal's Flickr workshop), one pen, and 47 cents.

Everything was sorted, thrown out, scanned, and disposed of as needed. I also threw out the computer box for Kris' computer which he purchased a year and a half ago. I think he'll be keeping that one, so the box can go. You'd think.

Okay, so nominally one and a half boxes done, fifteen hundred forty three to go.

A productive day.
