My home office is extremely messy because it is the only extra room in the house. So, when we have to do a "hurry-up-clean-up," all the extra junk gets thrown into the home office. Thus, the junk piles higher and higher, and the home office is a total wreck. If someone broke into my house, the police would say that the home office was completely ransacked, and I'd be too embarrassed to say it looks like that all the time!
