I've seen this around MyBloggers a couple of times and thought it looked fun.
My nightstand, which is actually on my wife's side of the bed, holds the following:
- Black, Haitian, wooden container for misc. stuff
- Unused, black, shiny coasters for the many glasses of water, tea, soda, etc.
- Ibuprofen 800mg, muscle relaxants, and another pill my wife takes
- Hairspray and brush, not mine
- A coin or two
- Kleenex
- A power strip (??? who knows ???)
- A silver clock, Christmas gift from my brother several years back
- My wife's cell phone
- A key to our apartment
- An empty picture frame, Christmas gift from a mutual friend this year
- A Blistex lip balm
- Raid plug-in to kill mosquitos while we sleep!
It sounds like a lot, but it really doesn't look like much. Notice the absence of books. We're newlyweds!
