A View With A Room

My computer has been held prisoner for the past few days by Tech Team. I dropped it way too many times this summer for it to still be in one piece, but lo and behold I got it back and now don't know how to work it. They were nice enough to delete all the illegal programs I had and replace them with updates and software patches that completely threw off my desktop's Feng Shwizzle. Ah, oh well. It's good to be back among the e-people.

While I was freed from my techno shackles, I actually got work done. I talked about moving into Searcy and all the joys that come with it, but I failed to mention my home away from home.


MY ROOM
My Door. B & W picture of Van Gogh and Hobo

 Data collected from Montgomery Police Dept.




 I should explain the door decoration. My resident's doors have similar ones with bearded personalities. Our goal in Searcy was to make it the "Manliest Place On Earth". We encourage the resident's to go on riverboat gambling trips, make homemade beef jerky, and poop with the door open.
This painting greets you as you walk in. Yes, that's Jesus and a Unicorn

Couch wall. Various paintings and posters.

I've painted since I was a freshman in high school, so I brought a selection of paintings from home to stick on the wall. I wanted to be a High School Art Teacher for a hot minute, but HC doesn't offer Art Education. Probably a good thing. Public schools are quickly getting rid of art and music programs and teacher salaries are stagnating or dropping altogether. At least it is in the Lotteryless Alabama. I've heard Georgia and Florida teachers drive Gold Cutlass Supremes and put sprinkles on everything. Classy to the max.






I have a passion for red sofas. Ask me about them sometime.
Could have been in Eric Foreman's basement.

Desk(Wheel)Chair

My trash can. Had to work 8 hours at a Rummage Sale to get this baby.

I pray to this picture 5 times a day.
Color Coordinated. I'm OCD when it comes to that. My DVDS are in alphabetical order too.
While these pictures don't do it justice at all, it does reassure me that I have been productive. What I couldn't include were my gung-ho air fresheners that hit you in the face when you walk in the door or the rest of my paintings, because my battery died. 
People are sick of me bragging about my room, but I'm not going to stop. I put a lot of work into this joker and I expect it to do a lot of work for me. People ask me if I call it something like "The Dojo" or "The Bat Cave". I think I've settled on FREE BEER AND CHICKEN. It gets people excited when you say it and they want to join in on the fun.
In the future I will include more pictures of the room and the stories behind them.

EDITED


Empty space saved for bookshelf....
