    Journal articles (read, to be read, reading) and diet pop cans (currently sitting at 14, every once in a while I get sick of knocking them over and bring them to recycling). I'm the lab slob.

    I work on a hospital floor, so I don't have a desk, but I hoard (in my locker) dry erase markers like they're cigarettes in a prison. That **** can buy you favors on my floor...


    LOL!!! That's awesome. It's like me - I work in a police station and the White Out handheld dispensers are like crack, I just can't have enough. And when the officers take mine, I freak out!

    Phones. Every cordless phone handset ends up on my desk, eventually.

    And legos. They appear regularly. Must be the three boys I have.

    I'm working on growing a cup garden which consists of water cups, coffee mugs, and to-go coffee cups... and I collect laptop power cords for some weird reason.

    Water. A big giant bottle that looks like a Sparkletts bottle with a sport top on it, that I can still never remember to drink. AFter a couple days, I dump it and refill it in case the old water got bacteria in it, and then let that one sit until I dump it and refill it again.

    Water bottles usually. Sometimes I'm too lazy to throw them away.

    Me too! I swear I'm going to recycle them at some point in time...

    I don't work so I don't have a desk. I DO however collect spiral notebooks. I'm a list maker... I'm not kidding when I say I have 30 of them!! They are SO cute though!! I don't ever have the plain ones, only the cute ones with flowers or birds... They make me happy! Oh and chapstick. Cherry and Mint are my favorites with a couple originals thrown in. I have at least one with me at all times- last time I checked there were 5 with me. It was a random checkpoint... hahahaha!
