Desk part, I wouldn't care because nobody really visits my work desk and most of my stuff is digital so the desk is only occupied by several stacked tea glasses and bowls. The tally marks wouldn't be a problem unless you like to write loose leaf on a desk rather than a notebook/pad.
*googled too* I...I'm mildly surprised that word doesn't exist actually. cateologist. But I mentioned that word because I am already imagining a sort of organized clutter, of clutter that purposely has large gaps between cluster of space. Maybe organized by color, function, frequency of use.
Personally organize by use frequency. The closer it is, the more likely I use it.
edit: *googled define again* yeah.. I think I'm probably thinking of another word.
Right word or not, I really like this, as an excuse to romanticize my (granted, very specific and obsessive) cluttered surfaces. I wish they were organized by any of these reasonable principles, but really everything's just piled in order of when I was supposed to start working on it - which means, piled in order of how guilty it makes me feel, and how much I want to avoid it...
There would totally be some fancy elvish word for this, wouldn't there. It would probably also include a vague sense of yearning for the clutter you can never recreate, or never had.
