my new desk still has not arrived. in fact, it hasn't even been ordered!

the guy from office depot came weeks ago and we re-measured and picked out new stuff that we are certain will fit. we basically got the exact same stuff that was in here when the last person was in this office.

unfortunately, because the old stuff that was ordered that didn't fit was returned, they have to do a whole ton of paperwork to put the money back into the account and re-approved for a new purchase through the purchasing department, and all the returns and new purchases have to be cleared through office depot's purchasing department... so my new stuff hasn't even been ordered yet. it's been picked out, but never ordered.

meanwhile, the faux wood grain pattern on my temporary desk is freaking out my optical mouse, causing my cursor to jump erratically all over the screen. i may have to get a mouse pad. :(
