I’m looking for a new desk.
The one I have now was purchased from Staples in 1997 for $100.
It’s presently being held together by duct tape and prayer.
The one I’m salivating over is on Amazon and costs $500. I fear it would be like putting a Davinci painting inside an auto shop.
There are other factors leading me away from my dream desk:
- The mouse catcher
2. The desk wrecker
And then there’s the wood chewer who often confers with the mouse catcher:
Any new desk will not stand a chance against them — unless it’s made out of Titanium and bullet-proof plexi glass.
Unfortunately, any desk put together that well will probably be worth more than my house.
Looks like I’ll be buying more of this:
Oh they trained you so well on how to maintain a desk😂. So what is your plan now? Buy more tapes to save the existing on or buy less tapes and buy a new table😉. Loved it Joelle, the sarcasm on your pets behaviour 😂😜. Hope you are having a good time with them. Have a beautiful day ✨💐

Looks like I’m getting more duct tape. 🙂

If you mix cayenne pepper and a little water and apply liberally to the areas that are most in danger, it may discourage the carnage.

I’m glad we came to a compromise.

My cat doesn’t wreck the desk but anything on it is fair game – the cellotape dispenser is a favourite, and she likes to chew the ends of the pencils and if I’m still not paying her attention she stomps over the keyboard.

Mine stomps on the keyboard at times, too. His favorite thing is to wait until I’m reading a bill or something for work — and then he takes one foot to push my mouse on the floor. 🙂

Haha. I gave up on traditional desks and bought a $39 black metal table from Ikea. It’s perfect 👌

I’d love to get another desk exactly like the one I’m using. So far, I haven’t found anything near it in size and shape.
It reminds me of finding bras that fits. When they wear out, the style isn’t made any longer. 🙂
