I don't like bringing in anything personal to my cubicle at work; it's pretty much undecorated. However, my sister has a LotR rip-a-day calendar, and she leaves all of the cute guy days on my desk. I tack them to the teeny work board next to my computer, along with my schedule and the phone list.
Today I realized that I have waaaay too many Aragorns, Boromirs, Legolai, Faramirs, and Haldirs, and I set about the brutal task of reducing them to a more manageable number. I kept all of the Faramirs (of course!), decimated the Legolai, kept both Haldirs, and took down all of the Aragorns. I rearranged them until I had a pleasing display.
After I was done, I put the last push pin in place, sat back...
...and felt like I needed to click a save button.
Yes. You read that right. I thought I needed to "save" my RL cork board arrangement.
That really made me crack up.
