A Saturday post, I know. Anyway, if you're here you get to check out this cool picture.
It's a city made of staples. Cool, huh?

That's a lot of sharpies to sniff before bed time Monsieur!! :p
ReplyDeletePlanning on writing a novel, in silver no less?
ReplyDeleteLove the staple city!
Under other circumstances I would say the crochet needles were weird, but no kidding, there's a pair on my nightstand as well (no kidding).
ReplyDeleteI have wound care equipment, incense, and a clock on one night stand, and diabetic testing materials, 5 books (How the Grinch Stole Christmas, the first Chopping
ReplyDeleteBlock collection, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, a Bloom County special, and a book on Voodou), and an ink pen on the other. W00t!
myself I keep books, food, night light and photos on my night stand. yeah i have to have food just in case i starve in the middle of the night. like if?
ReplyDeletestaple city really cool. advertising?
Lots of pens! I think I'll purchase a metallic silver Sharpie today. :-)
ReplyDeleteBenjamin Moore paint is the best, and what bedside table would be complete without a Lego pistol, or any other Lego piece? Have a great Saturday!
Looks like a post to steal. Also, you're keeping the new video camera in the bedroom? I may have to bribe Connor to get hold of that little gem.
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is Connor and Liam must not have the same fascination with Sharpies that my kids do because that would be a recipe for A DISASTER OF BIBLICAL PROPORTIONS in my house. And yes, it would be so bad as to require all caps. Those suckers have to be kept under lock and key around here.
ReplyDeleteNothing better than a bunch of journals and some really good pens.
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend! :)
Sharpies are the coolest. It's like a drug.. once you use them you cannot stop.
ReplyDeleteI fell in love with the extra fine clicky ones. Makes me all giddy.
Not sure how a metallic silver one would make me feel.
Lego pistol is mandatory for maximum bedside safety.
You make the baby teeth in my bedside table seem common place.
ReplyDeleteYou've got pen mad.
ReplyDeleteEllie
John Adams has moved from bedside table to the floor. (to put a fan on a couple of weeks ago).
ReplyDeleteThat is one cool stable city.
Although the sharpies kinda make your posts make that much more sense, why did they make you make a city out of staples? Also, is your office actively searching for the culprit jacking the office supplies?
ReplyDeleteIs there a reward for information?
I mean..I'm just curious.
Is the staple city made by this person?

I Love the staple city! Also Silver Sharpies Rock!!! I have never had one I didn't love and use dry! I actually wrote an entire term paper in Silver Sharpie once... Then I turned it in because I though I had rewritten it... the teach laughed until she tried to read it then I had to rewrite.
ReplyDeleteDo you have like a dining room table for a bedside table? How is it possible to fit that much stuff?
ReplyDeleteCan you actually see the table underneath all the writing tools?
ReplyDeleteJust wondering...Sharpies in general are pretty much the best things evah though.
So, what exactly do you do with all that stuff while in bed?
ReplyDeletea staple city? somebody has WAY too much time on his hands...
ReplyDeleteLove the staple city!!
ReplyDeleteWhy do you need moleskin by your bed?? That makes me very suspicious....
That is a kick arse city!!! Veddy cool. Now I'm off to figure out where the heck I've been to have been 5 posts behind on ye blog, sheesh!!!
ReplyDeleteblessings!
Wait...there is someone with an actual last name of Abercrombie?
ReplyDeleteYour bedside table must be a desk. I'd be picking things up off the floor on a regular basis.
ReplyDeleteCool staple city.
that is an amazing picture! and an awful lot of things beside your bed!!:)
ReplyDeleteThe staple city is awesome! How clever!
ReplyDeletePens, pens everywhere on your bed side table. I'm also a pen person, there has to be at least 100 around the house. But, alas, I only have a black Sharpie. I think I'll go look for other colors now . . .
The crochet needle is for writing invisible notes.
ReplyDeleteCool city scape indeed!
I get all that other stuff, but why, pray tell, do you have the Zi6 by your bedside? Hmmmmm? Inquiring minds want to know, sir!
ReplyDelete;-)
Still trying to break me with the "Amy chose me over anyone" Nikon thing, huh?
ReplyDeleteBastard....
That is so cool with the staples! I will have you and your sister linked in my next post, probably Sunday night!
ReplyDeleteA metallic silver Sharpie is a must on any bedside table. I sign all my paintings with one.
ReplyDeleteWhoever made that staple city has way too much time on his hands. Yes, I'm assuming it's a man.
ReplyDeleteAnd you need a Pentel Sign Pen. Just sayin'.
So you have kids and you keep Sharpies next to your bed? Isn't that just looking for trouble?
ReplyDeleteBeen doing some late crocheting? You are really a bad ass.
ReplyDeleteWhoever made that city of staples stole some major office supplies from his job.
ReplyDeletehey, is there a backstory to the Staple-City?
ReplyDeletethat is SO cool! :-)
..
.ero
The knitting needle is fascinating... my table also includes the hammer of justice...
ReplyDeleteThat is a wicked cool picture. I love staples. I just put more in my stapler today, in fact.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very cool picture.
ReplyDeleteI love moleskin. That stuff rocks. (Uh...presuming you are talking about the stuff you use to prevent blisters - not the real skin of a mole.)
my oh my, some of you might just as well be my own imaginary friends...and well I LOVE IT...
ReplyDeleteI think I have fixed the comments box again! shezzz
Dude--a city made of staples? How cool is that? Awesome!
