I remain irritated by my desk. I just feel the space behind it is completely wasted, and I'm beginning to resent it. My love affair with this desk is QUITE over, I'm about ready to ditch it. I think a stop in Building 19 tomorrow after my client is in order. If I can get something for $30 I'm willing. I just want a table, or something with drawers to take the place of my file drawers. I've moved the vanity, and spur the TV Stand in the place I wanted it and I'm FAR happier than I was before. There's just something - wrong. And my big idea about corner shelves? FUBAR'd, since the monitor sits on a riser directly in front of the corner. It just isn't worth it. Now, if I could TURN the damn thing, I'd be set.

I'm desperately trying to avoid the purchasing of anything new. I'm trying to be good and use what I have. I have these plastic storage boxes that I'm trying to use, but they just look - very college. Very sloppy. I didn't' do all this to see the whole sloppy just come back in. I've seen these awesome mesh wire baskets, for the top of my bookcases. And that bathroom thing at Linen's N Things. Underbed storage is one thing - I CAN cover that (although I haven't found my bedskirt. I put a nice extra black fitted sheet on the box spring per [livejournal.com profile] feline's suggestion and that pleases me, but I'm not buying a bedskirt just to cover some stuff that one can't see at first glace.)

Maybe what I NEED to do is revamp my closet. Maybe I can buy some closet modular things, and keep some stuff that currently lives OUTSIDE, in the closet. Thing is, lots of this stuff could be kept in the bathroom or linen closet (extra shampoo, razor blades, etc.) but Teh Unit owns those, and it's been made clear that making room for anything of mine isn't going to happen (see ALL the postings about my coffee maker for that one.) So I live like a dorm room. But I don't want to decorate like that anymore. I want pretty, I want matching, I want organized. I want to know where everything is.

*sighs* If it becomes a major issue I suppose an underbed box will do. And I'm very quickly leaning towards it, now that I've thought of it. It's not like anything will melt. I'll keep the candles in a plastic box on top of the bookcases.

I hate rambling. But it's productive, as I impliment changes.

But for now I have to stop, get cleaned up, make sure I have everything and pop out to the airport to pick up the returning [livejournal.com profile] dancer and [livejournal.com profile] tk7602 from DCon. I love the airline tracker, I know they're over Maryland right now and I have some time yet. Then I have to go to a client, where I don't WANT to go, since I have designs on organizing, but I haven't been and things are going to be crowded. FEH - I forgot to go to the store - I drank all B's soda, and wanted to replace it - I knew I was forgetting something.
