My husband HATES building things, which makes this mishmash fairly amazing. He built the media rack, the TV shelf (which he built so the scanner could go under it), the tape shelf and, the latest thing, the box that holds my podcast studio. It’s not pretty, but it’s the most beautiful thing in the world to me because he built it just to make me happy.

[My husband’s handiwork](http://rhodeshows.com/images/dopepic.jpg)

His computer is behind my chair, facing the opposite wall. The room is so small that we bump chair backs if both of us try to stand up at the same time.

Holy crap!

My neighbor came up today to watch some CNN about Katrina aftermath because he lived in that area briefly and has no cable, so I had to mad scamble to clean and re-arrange my stuff! Here’s a few new shots of what it looks like:

The important question, given the first picture, is are you wearing _anything?_

I want your hair color.

Come to think of it, I have approximately that same haircut at the moment, except for excessive bangs.

You want it, you can have it. There’s nothing special about it, just really dark blond. (Although I DO have natural light blond highlights…in my eyebrows?!)

[Where My Pictures Be](http://photos.yahoo.com/quietguy042)  
In the Where I Be folder, picture 1 is Where My Computer Room Be, complete with the back of my son’s head as he plays Battlefield 2.

Picture 2 is my own computer that’s so slow and clunky that nobody else wants to use it (clever me…).

Picture 3 is, well, me. Dang, that’s a bright flash.

I think it’s a very nice color. Would probably involve going to the salon, though, since all I can get on my own is red.

The eyebrow highlights are a bit strange, though. Eyebrows always do something weird in my experience.
