April 18th, 2007Thursday Thirteen #21
1. My awesome Web cam.
2. My equally awesome Olympus SP-350 Digital Camera
3. The best Eye drops ever. Visine A with Antihistamine and redness reliever.
4. My Peter Rabbit round tin that holds our half million pens, pencils and scissors.
5. A lighted 5X magnification mirror. Yep, I tweeze my brows at my desk.
6. A can of compressed air. The best invention ever. It also works well as a cat deterrent.
7. A newly arrived post card from New Zealand — my first one from NZ.
8. A self-healing mat, cork board I use for crafts, bone folder, adhesives and an 18″ stainless steel ruler.
9. A yellow, HP, 02 series ink cartridge for Gertie (my printer).
10. A 180 GB external hard drive, named Billy. I use it for weekly backups, as well as extra backup for photos. I cannot tell you how many photos I’ve lost because I didn’t back them up regularly.
11. A 2007 Crossword of the Day Desk Calendar.
12. A Great Smoky Mountains Geocoin that I found the other day in our first Geocache find. (Scroll down if you’d like to see it).
13. Green Tea flavoured Chap stick. I also have a large zip lock bag filled with about a hundred more chap sticks. I can’t get enough of them!
The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged! If you participate, leave the link to your Thirteen in others comments. It’s easy, and fun! Be sure to update your Thirteen with links that are left for you, as well! I will link to everyone who participates and leaves a link to their 13 things. Trackbacks, pings, comment links accepted!

Thanks for stopping at my TT

You crack me up with the magnification mirror… Since I’m more on the unibrow side of the fence I should probably do that too… I’m just too lazy!
I love Green Tea, but not too sure I’m keen on the chapstick flavor.

I love Green Tea, too, and oh my goodness am I a Lip Balm nut! I don’t use chapstick, though — I’m into Blistex and Carmex, ya know, the hard stuff, LOLOL! ;-) And I like that you named your hard drive. Cute!
Happy TT, and thanks for visiting my blog!

Heh heh, I like Blistex and Carmex, too. I meant ‘chap stick’ in a general term, kinda like Kleenex!

I’m addicted to chapstick, too. I have recently discovered though that I like aquafina brand and binaca brand better. Off brands are usually awful!
My TT is also posted.

You’ve named your external hard drive? How interesting. And here I thought I was the only freak on the planet that named electonic equipment

Great list. I bought a Web Cam, but took it back, considering I use my laptop more than I do my PC anymore.
Check out my TT.

LOL I love that your printer and hard drive have names. :-)
I’ve had many different flavors of chap stick but never green tea. I’ll have to look for that one.
And your list reminded me that I need to buy more of #3.
Happy TT and thanks for visitng mine!

If you’re interested it’s back 2 basics, Nature’s lip care. It came in a package with two others, Chamomile, and I don’t remember the other one.

Don’t we get a picture? ;-) I can imagine your desk though! Might be an interesting one for me to do for a TT.
Thanks for visiting my collections TT. Sharpies are a wonderful weakness!

I think compressed air is fantastic too. I don’t deliberately use it as a cat deterrant, but my cats do run a mile every time I use it.

That’s quite a lot, lol ! I only have my printer and on the printer are sitting 4 little ceramic cats, a tea pot with cats on, a mug with cats on. But it’s not a desk it’s just a little table with my laptop and sometimes two of my real cats, they also sit on there !
