Nightstands of NS

So I thought of this idea last night before i went to bed. I was looking down at my nightstand next to my bed and i noticed how it kinda depicts what my life was like at that moment. I also got some inspiration from an article on GearPatrol.. idk if anyone reads their stuff but its fuckin good. In this article some of the writers take pictures of their work desks and tell some stories about the things on it.

Here's the link:
http://gearpatrol.com/2014/07/23/desks-of-gp/

So i figured we could upload pictures of our nightstands on given nights and explain why the shit on there is on there, you can put whatever you want on there.. make it funny as fuck.. make it serious, just explain the story.

-So the Pink lighter cause i decided to get real baked last night.. and the reesee's obviously followed
-The notebook because i did real shitty on a paper and decided i needed to crack down on my school work
and the pen for the same reason
-The laptop cause i'm real fuckin into American Horror Story.. that shits awesome
-Water bottle cause i've been slackin on my H2O intake
-The tissue cause i've been feelin a little shitty....... or for other reasons
-I always have chapstick




so idk let's see if this sticks... could be fun

& masterbates(or has a "cold"). hahaha jk,



but I'll save the trouble of posting a pic. All I have on my night stand/dresser is an iPod alarm and a lamp. When me and my GF go to bed add two cell phones and an eCig to the nightstand/dresser.

To clarify our nightstand is also our dresser.

Here's the current shape of my nightstand.



Steve Jobs book, picked it up from a thrift store three weeks ago and it hasn't left the place its in due to school picking way the fuck up. Need to start it soon though.

"I HATE SCHOOL" girl because its funny af, duh

Zebra aloe plant because plants r c00l ya know, gotta have them greens

Copious amounts of incense ashes and incense for obvious reasons.

Phone case is casually laying there covered in dust becuase it's a piece of poop. The opening for my charging cable is too small, causing me to take off the case every time I have to charge my phone. Big hassle.

Gum because I eat it after I smoke.

Supreme tray with $430 in in. That's new ski boot money.

Two keys. Honestly, I have no idea where they came from of what they unlock. Haha.

I don't have a photo right now, but I have a story.

This past Christmas I went home for the holidays and one of my buddies had a family christmas party on the 23rd (as I recall). To make that part of the story short, I got fucked off this pitcher of cosmo (idk if there's a word for a lot of a cosmopolitan) that his mom had made. Let me be the first to point out how lame and demeaning that is. It was like pure vodka and pink colouring at the bottom and I drank it and laughed. I blacked out hard and made a fool of myself and like borderline insulted a lot of people at a nice party. I'm not proud of that. I'm not really proud of any of this.

I woke up the next morning around 8:30 or 9 and did one of those cartoon blinking double-takes where both eyelids open and close like a camera lens. I sensed something was up, and I could see that my bedside table was askew. The top of this thing lifted up like one of those oldschool school desks, and it was wide open and leaning against the wall behind it. The table itself had been pulled forward a couple feet, apparently violently. There had been a jar of cookies on it, and I saw that they were strewn fucking everywhere on my floor. My first thought was to blame the dog, as if she'd maybe gotten into the cookies.

But then it started to dawn on me - I used to do this thing in high school (still do) where I'd open a drawer or something as like a worst-case scenario failsafe for when I came home drunk. I never actually puked in my drawers, it was just a mental patch I put in place to help me sleep or something. It was never well thought out.

So I crawl out of bed and my head is splitting apart and I feel like death and I look at the table and not only have I flung the thing open (okay, cookie situation wrapped up nicely) I have also filled the fucking table with puke to a depth of like two inches. It was AWFUL. I cleaned it up with toilet paper and lysol wipes. There was puke in every part of the thing and it reeked.

I asked my mom if she'd heard like a crash or anything the night before, and had to explain the whole scenario. She thought it was funny but I was pretty stricken with guilt for a while after. It gets brought up at just about every family gathering. I also broke the lamp that was on the table, but it's since been quietly replaced.

Hmm... It's sideways and I'm not sure how to rotate it. Oh well. Mostly books. My watches. Some work stuff. ZMA. Sticky notes and a pen. Usually my passport and a Nalgene are on there too

lol word, glad you liked it. It's still there, I think it was an heirloom honestly (..Jesus, what an idiot). And it's one of those things that I can't tell if it smells cause I know what happened or if there's actually a funk.

yessss hahaha I love that you have this mental patch to prepare for the worst. wish i had that. last weekend i drank quite a bit of wine and jungle juice at this party (they had a banister with a beer bong zip tied all the way to it. so like duh obviously i had to drink a full fucking cup of jungle juice through it.) came home a couple hours later so drunk i could barely walk. proceeded to hangout for a bit, go to bed, lay down, and immediately run to the bathroom because i had to puke. i explosively puked out a deep-purple colored stream all over the bathroom, painting it purple. im talking the entire floor around the toilet, the entire toilet itself, the wall behind, and like half of the shower. it was awful. i wished i had a photo of it.
