I spend a lot of time in my office when it is not harvest time. There are a few essentials that I keep around to make my day easier. You have to make your office comfy cozy to find your peace. The following are some things that help me get through-mostly crap, but necessary.
The heat- When lunch time comes, it’s time to spice it up. Whether it’s Vietnamese, Chinese, Mexican, etc. you have to have an arsenal of chili-based products to make your face melt. Picture here is the current desktop lineup.
Emergency liquor cabinet. A friend of mine has a still, and he makes all sorts of great stuff. Currently we have some Limoncello and some Rum for that morning coffee break-just kidding. Only after the day is done right?
Words to live by- whether its golf or not this is the constant reminder that you can get more done with the velvet hammer vs. getting thuggish.
Bad Brains poster- whenever I need to go on blast a little reggae tinged Washington D.C. Hardcore from back in the day gets me charged up
Coffee mugs- I drink way too much probably, but I don’t care. Coffee rules.
Yellow note pads-Without my to-do list, I am nothing. I keep this by my side at all time or else I forget everything I need to get done in a day.
Rack full of Wine- For research purposes only of course
I Love Offal sticker-words to live by. Who needs vegetables when there is all the organs and spare parts of an animal to nourish you. Get some!
Vince Lombardi cards- I loved that guy. The way he lived his life and influenced those around him was ace! They don’t make them like Vince anymore. People are just soft today. On Sunday’s during football season, we pray to Vince for a Packers victory.
The Fridge- it houses beers, never eaten lunch science projects, lab samples and some 4 year old low-fat salad dressing that has never been used. This fridge is disgusting but I love it
The Pitching Wedge- The right to bear arms. You have to protect the castle! If a solicitor or a co-worker ever attacks me I have the answer. “Say hello to my little friend!”
My Blue Chair-My wife tried to sell this without my permission on Craig’s List. Luckily I rescued it and brought it to the winery. So swanky- I can’t believe she didn’t want it in our house.
