So much

For getting to work early. I've been performing archeological explorations on my desks. I did find what I was looking for, and that's a relief, but it's very much like exploring precambrian layers, or even hadean, although I'm not sure layers is appropriate there. Surfaces around me accrete. Floors, walls, and especially tables. They gradually vanish from view under layers of accretions. If it wasn't for Thong throwing things out on a regular basis, this would probably resemble a hermit's house with small passages between walls of garbage...

I refer to the layers in my husband's office/end table/desk as strata.

Actually, I think, many "hermits" -- like myself (read "men who live alone and aren't the Compulsively Neat ones") -- regularly take out the garbage and most of the trash. It's the mathoms that we "might do something with, someday" that form the walls of the narrow passages, gradually getting higher as the years and decades pass. *sigh* (And yes, as a practitioner of the Digby Disgust System of housekeeping ("I generally do something about it when it gets _too_ disgusting"), I'm now in the process of gradtually getting rid of slightly more than I acquire.
