Desk Setup

Date: 11/19/2022

I'm setting up the old plant lights around my work desk. The desk is in a corner and behind me, a small bit of shag rug where JP watches from an armchair. I am making her laugh about a letter I received from her staff. Beyond JP is a big window and more shelves, then nothing but white light the edge of the horizon or the end of the world. The heavy flourescent lights are a bit broken and I'm tying them up with chains and shoe laces. Some overlap. I redo them a couple times to get them right. CB comes to help and brings his wife. I go to the shelves to grab the hanging ornaments. The first two are jars full of moldy spices and sand, for scent or potions I guess. I can hear CB and MD fighting and JP leaves. I find another ornament shaped like a Russian stacking doll but made of clear glass. More herbs? I look closer and there's a calendar stuffed inside. Probably 25 years out of date. I look even closer and see it's adjustable. Probably doesn't go to 2022. Then I notice it goes to 9999 and I am so excited! I will hang this one down low, close to my laptop. I start rotating the dials to the correct date. When I move the year, the month and day move too. This will take awhile.
