I don’t have one at home but the work calander is just a promotional thing sent by some plant nursery or another. Non-threatening scenes of Americana. Still, it beats the ones that had pictures of retaining walls or brick paver driveways for each month. ---

In my classroom, I have a _Demotivation_ wall calendar, a US Navy desk blotter/calendar (for notes and tournament data), a plain old flip desk calendar (for appointments and such), and a _365 Stupidest Things People Have Said_ page a day calendar. At home, the page a day is _Get Fuzzy_. ---

I’ve got both a wall calendar with all sorts of pretty landscapes featuring stagecoaches, and a very generic one based on a Word template for my group to write in their upcoming days off. It’s big, at least - each month is its own sheet of paper. ---

Let’s see, our wall calendar is a Kwajalein 2006 calendar. Lots of shots from around the atoll. My personal calendar is actually an American Express Book. Has a 2-page layout for each month which is nice for keeping track of flights/times/confirmation numbers/hotel reservations/confirmation numbers/rental car reservations/confirmation numbers. Then there are all the other day-by-day pages for the details. I also have a small calendar that fits into my wallet for abbreviated versions of the above. If I just want to check a calendar, I use my cell phone’s calendar. ---

Hanging on the wall over my desk, Sabra Field’s paintings of Vermont, a different one each month. On my desk, a _Lord of the Rings_ page-a-day calendar (and BTW, the images seem a bit more blurry and muddy than in years past).
