The Great Fall

The great thing about living in a one bedroom apartment is that there is absolutely NOOO room for anything.  So our desk, as seen previously  fully intact, held just about everything.  On top, in the drawers, next to, around...  everything perfectly had its little cubby/area.   Unfortunately, three years ago as poor newlyweds, we decided to save some moola and get the target brand furniture (desk, coffee table and side tables).  Three years later we realize that MAY not have been the best discussion and decision we could have made.  Because over the past few months - our flimsy desk had been teetering on what seemed like a pin.    Apparently, thats exactly all that was holding it together, because one evening, (I was at school) Tad was at the desk typing and as he picked up the labtop to move the the couch, the world fell out from under him.  our desk collapsed.  And everything on it crashed down. Our macbook is fine, and so is my floppy disk pen holder (thanks for asking).  
So There ---------------------> 
is our sad desk all crumpled and thrown in the corner.  Dear Desk, I'd say some nice words here, like "thanks for the times, and for being such a nice desk" but you never really were.  Sorry Desk.
   We reorganized into crates and have turned our table into a make-shift desk.  Which makes finding lesser used items like stamps and the little interchangeable socket for the apple charger a bit more challenging.   But now that we are a poor married couple again, we'll have to wait til i get a job for a new one (NOT from target).

I got a desk from office max in high school and it's in SUCH crappy shape. I want a new one but I'm kind of waiting for mine to actually fall apart before I spend more cash.

Here's what you do. Go get a couple of cinder blocks and a wooden plank. 1 cheap desk ready to go. That't how I roll.
