My Messy Desk Wins Again

I swear, my desk at home is a living, breathing entity that hates me. It's like it has its own agenda to pile stuff up and hide the things I need most. This morning, I spent 20 minutes searching for a critical document needed for an important client call, only to find it crammed behind a stack of papers with a post-it note stuck to it reading 'urgent.' Is this normal? Am I doomed to live in perpetual chaos at my desk, or can someone please tell me their secret to office organization?
