Maybe it's just me -or the average mice I use- but I've never really
seen/felt much advantage from mouse pads. Or rather, not from a mouse
pad over an average surface (there are times when a mouse pad is
absolutely necessary because the table you're on is just so shitty
that the mouse can't pick up anything, but in that case a piece of
paper would work just as well).

My current 'mousepad' is a 50-year old hand-made cutting board (you
know, for slicing veggies and whatnot) I inherited from a relative.
Since I already had a very nice cutting board in the kitchen, I had to
find some use for this battered piece of wood (it's been in the family
so long, and has hand-written notes on it from my uncle, who made the
thing). Turns out, it's /just/ the right size to be used as a mousing
surface. And I'm sure all those scrapes and knife-cuts make it a lot
easier for the mouse to 'see' where it's going. ;-P

You mean your brother gave you a Skyrim themed desk.

  Nah, it doesnt actually cover my desk. It covers a good distance though.
