All the World's a Stage

This is a photo of my desk at work. see all the pretty lights?( note the wall is just plain white) part of my job is to sell folks the stuff they need to create these effects in their theatre. As a result, when the bosses built the new office/shop/show room they wanted to be able to showcase these products. Which is great. They also wanted a friendly, knowable face out front to greet people as they come in. This person would be me. I don't mind this most of the time, However I do not like the feeling of being "on stage" all the time.I am a techie dammit! I avoid the light at all cost! I mean what is a girl to think when there is a giant bolt of lighting over her head all the time?I have finally talked the boss into changing the everyday lighting to something a little less dramatic. The color is a little softer and the patterns more muted. I can still bring up the stained glass window when I need to show it. Why do I share this all with you? Well is your office this cool? Did you have your desk custom designed and built by nice guys who like you? I did. Is it not the coolest desk?

In knitting news I am done with the heel of the 1st jaywalker. I like the look of it but the fabric is very stiff. I have a pair of plain socks going as well for at work knitting... and a new project is under way... A little tweedy little jacket for MB... more on that later...

OMG - that desk is awesome. I can see why the lighting would get "old" some days. Thanks for sharing it is absolutely the coolest desk I've ever seen.
