Making room

I washed my shower, my sheets, and my bedding. Starting the transformation spiral from the center. I am sleeping in five-hour chunks, dolphining toward tomorrow.

My office is dim. I usually bring in lights. I have a huge 4' x 6' white art table --heavy-duty engineering bench, actually -- which I custom-designed in 1990 to be precisely the right height when I stand. For years I brought it to every office I had, even the one in Australia.

I like having half my office a busyness of computers and papers, half an emptiness of white.

But lately, with the Xbox, the table always becomes a gear bench. There's just not room for a computer, a monitor, a laptop, an Xbox, a dev kit, a tv, controllers, a playspace, AND a giant empty art table, all in one micro-office.

I just reread that sentence and had to laugh. My big problem is not enough room for all the toys.
