I miss my desk
I'm writing this tiny rambling with my laptop on my stomach, as I have a moment to sleep while my kiddo is sleeping. That's not the most convenient way of doing things, but I don't have much choice right now, unless I'm willing to move out a bunch of stuff from a living room table and maybe wake up my baby in the process. And even if, it's still not that convenient. Yeah, I'm lazy, but that's just a short moment when I actually can rest a bit.
For the most of my life I had a proper desk to do homework, then play on my laptop and lately do my college stuff, paperwork, a 3rd cup of coffee that day, all of that early adult things. Nowadays I don't have room for that, as just like many of your parents, I have just a bed, wardrobes and stacks of important baby items all over the place. I just wanted to say I really miss those hours and hours of sitting next to that one place that was always mine and empty enough to comfortably put a computer, a second screen (oh my goodness, the moment you buy one, there's no going back to just one tiny screen), notebooks and any other papers relevant to stuff that I need or want to do.
The second thing I kinda miss is how back in the day it was only possible to do certain computer work at the proper desktop. Nowadays the ability to write and edit documents, code stuff and even modify some images or other projects means that not only you can do it, you sometimes have to do it which adds up a pressure outside the place at home that belongs to.
So if you have a desk, cherish it, you may not have a place for it some day, or you got to work really hard to have for your own. For all the deskless people in the world that only use phones and laptops on the laps, I'm with you, wish you all the convenience that you dream off. And if you have one as an adult (and it's not solely the desk at your workplace), lucky you!
Hand-drawn scheme of my old desktop setup with two computers
Decades ago I had two desks and two computers, one HP modern laptop and second ancient Windows 95 PC. I drew that scheme and put that inside my mouse pad so it looked like a very proffesional rig lol
Oh, and if you wondering why my game wheel was under my bed and acted as a volume knob? Well, because the spring inside this dirt-cheap wheel eventually snaped inside and the sterring became so bad that I eventually used it as a volume control with JoyToKey program.
