Squirrel Paper Clips!


So I recently started a new job (hence the blog silence -- sorry, y'all, I can't wait to have a free evening to catch up on reading all of your lovely blogs!), and I have decided that acquiring squirrel paper clips is a pretty important thing to do, to brighten up the work day.  It's also pretty important that I have the right kind of pens (Pilot G2s, of course) because nice ink makes me excessively happy.  What strategies do you use to help infuse some extra fun into your 9-to-5?

(paperclips are from Modcloth, found via Hellogiggles)

  6. aw you are the queen of finding the cute!

    i'm not very picky about stationary at work, but super picky when i am studying! i love going to paperchase and picking out cute notepads and files. i am also a big fan of pilot pens, for years i couldn't sit an exam without one!

  7. I've missed your posts, but congrats on the new job! My work space is brightened up by a Lon Chaney action figure (as the Phantom of the Opera with interchangeable masked and unmasked faces!), Charles Dickens action figure, a mini Popple clipped to a wire that runs up the wall behind my desk. Although come to think of it, those first two things are kinda grim, but they still make me happy. ;-)

  12. first off, congrats on the new job! at least i hope so. i hope it's an awesome job where you can make good money for the bills and be surrounded by great co-workers, and everything else that you want in a job. secondly, i definitely need some good pens for my job. i'm a therapist and i write a ton of notes through the day. the pens at work just don't cut it. time to bring my own super inky ones.
