****, I don't know why I thought of the other keyboard first. Probably because I'm not used to the other one being in my room and I haven't used it in a while. It's one of the cheaper Yamaha keyboards (EDIT: Yamaha PSR E323). It's got some not terribly good sounding samples, but also a lot of quite decent ones. Definitely a decent starter keyboard, but if I get going for real with learning it, then I want to buy a fancier one for myself. The biggest hangup is how the keys, despite being pressure sensitive, aren't all that fine feeling. You can do soft, you can do hard, but it's difficult to consistently land right between the two amounts of pressure. Not that I should worry about that when I'm still barely able to move my fingers between chords and keys without landing between keys.

I've been approached for some weird requests, but never that.

My room is pretty bare aside from my odd trinkets since I tend to move every 1-2 years and end up getting rid of most things and leaving the rest in boxes.

My desk:

The gaudy fringed lamp pairs really nicely with my awful cinderblock-and-wood-plank desk, if I do say so myself. (I need a lot of lamps! I hate using the overhead light)
The book on the right is Black Holes and Warped Spacetime by William J. Kaufmann, III

Half of my dresser:

I wish I knew where I could find more of those rabbits. They have tags that say 'made in China', but I've only ever seen them at one particular antique mall around here. Every so often the rabbit in the back's head will fall off and startle me in the dead of night. Oh, and the stuffed zebra is modeling a dead relative's old clip-on earrings. I used to have way more gargoyle figurines but I've been forcing myself to get rid of them.

Vanity:

That's a framed picture of Mary Pickford on the left.

That's a really cool and cosy looking room. On that last pic... it looks like you have a couch or comfy chair standing in the way of that desk? If that's the case, is the room really small?

I just realized this reply makes no sense at all, since I forgot what exact pictures I ended up posting and thus referenced something not in any of the pictures. On a pic of my computer desk that I didn't post, there's a big plastic filing cabinet on top of my radiator to the right of the desk. On top of it is a big, messy stack of papers. That's what I thought TH was refererring to, but since it isn't depicted... he would have to be a psychic to do that. Maybe I should consider looking at my own pics before saying more nonsense.

That's some ectoplasm in the last picture, bottom right, coming out of that drawer, right?

No, I meant in the third picture, the wooden dresser thing with three drawers and two doors.

That's what I realized, since there was nothing else matching the description in the pictures I posted.

I think that this "wooden dresser thing" has been around for as long as I can remember. Someone else in the family had it before me. It's in good condition except one of the magnets that keeps the doors shut fell out. Getting down on your knees to dig into the video games in the back of the bottom shelf is a bitch, so I don't play those much

I guess that happens with them, because it also happened with ours, meaning you had to really slam or kick the doors shut. One reason why we got rid of it from the kitchen. Other was that were were getting the kitchen remodelled. The drawers stick too, don't they? Basically, a poc.
