muse


Friend sent by a rather nice hourglass that is now competing for desk space with my three cutesy toys, four plants, two phones, one music system, two lamps, two piles of books, three puzzles, two clocks, forty CD's, one pen-stand, a bowl full of sweets, two random plaques and three picture holders. Darn, my desk is a mess - considering this list doesn't include the keyboards, monitors and the floating population associated wtih any well used desk - PostIT notes, bills, random photo's, mints and a book on Haiku. Cat Haiku. (don't ask).

I'm trying to think of the ways I can use my hourglass.
- as a stress inducer during interviews.
- to prop up my chin when I'm bored during a meeting.
- carefully aimed, to devastate the scrabble board if i'm not doing well.
- as a roller that can race with my lego moon rover.
- as a fire extinguisher. Am told sand works well on fires.
