One of my most popular posts is a review of the Russell + Hazel Mini Binder and SmartDate system. I wrote that review over a year ago and thought I should write an update to show those curious about these binders how they hold up with frequent [...]
Here are some images collected over time of the view from my cubicle.
No, these aren’t real white butterflies (moths?), they’re fake ones from a craft store. Also, these are technically in a small room on the other side of the wall from my cubicle. The glass rocks here replace 2-year-old potpourri. I [...]
Office supplies have to be my favorite shopping genre. My dad and I used to spend an enormous amount of time at Office Depot just looking around and these evolution erasers are just the type of thing I would have forwarded to him, to which he would have likely replied “Too cool!”
