Life begins in the new, ostensibly temporary office. Yes, that is a fire alarm flasher on my wall.
UPDATE: So about 80% unpacked (to the extent I plan to unpack in this office). I was clever enough to pack differentiating between “Stuff I Must Immediately Have” and “Stuff I Can Live Without for a While” (most of it), so that helps. Biggest questions at the moment are whether I should put up some art (and mar the walls) and whether cartoons are acceptable window decor in this neck of the woods.

Could be worse! See:

Oh, I know — I’m bitching and wailing about my big interior office when there are folks out there typing memos on cardboard boxes in cubicles and the like. Just feeling sorry for myself. 🙂
