at office desk (3 days a week) cups for caffiene delivery, assorted puters and stuff. One calendar on thhe wrong month. not much else. Not alot of room.
At home office(2 days a week) various toys, Matchbox cars primarily. Love a Jaguar I have. Loads of books none are technical. Maps of various places I have visited. barely enough room for lappy and mouse. <grin>
I prefer working from home. I actually get more done there.

Hm, no 'toys' but lots of hardware. I'm a firmware dev so I've got 3 or 4 different products (out of case) that I work on, a network switch, 3 jackboxes and their associated handsets (we do 911 equipment/software), a PoE supply, a TI launchpad for the TM4C1294, 3 usb cables, 2 phones connected to a teltone and a fair amount of dust!

The desk itself just has computer, monitors etc and coffee but on the window-sill are some Star-wars Lego micro-fighters and a die-cast Enterprise NCC-1701-D

I once had one of those semi-perpetual motion toys -the kind that a ball hanging from a thread hits a set of balls also hanging from threads and the one in the opposite end gets expelled and returns to hit the set of balls again and again- I could watch it for hours and when it was still, kids loved to start the motion again and marveled but i tossed it away because sometimes the noise made by the small balls in motion was too distracting.
I'd love to sit it again in my desk if I could remember where it is now!

I had a Pink Panther whose legs and arms could be bent to assume any position I wanted, until my wife threw it away, possibly because it was a gift from an old dance partner. After 10 years, I still miss it.
I still have a dinosaur with a hidden button that opens and closes its mouth. It was one of my kids' toys when they were toddlers. I keep it hidden, and only take it out for visiting children or others that I trust not to react unfavorably when I threaten them with it.

Couple of cloth dragons, couple of solar dancing figuring, a Cam-Am motorcycle toy, couple of plants, couple squishy balls, a pessimists' mug, cub full of pens and pencils, box of Kleenex, couple of manuals, and a small Tylenol bottle full of clipped finger nails with a warning written on it: "DO NOT OPEN UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE."
No papers.

I would have sworn your quote was from W.C. Fields -- but whatever.
I have therapy putty; squishy stuff I knead in my hand while I'm thinking or reading.
Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

At home, a rock ball paper weight.

I opened the CP Insider Daily Developer News. Read the Dinosaur Comics posting and scrolled down a ways.
There on the very bottom of the listing was the tread from my very own initial post! It's more amazing than being up-voted on a Q&A answer !
So exciting! I won't be able to sleep in front of my monitors all day !
