Situation: I am sitting on a chair, while there is a table on my left and a coffee table in my two o'clock direction.
Alternative situations: I am lounging on a chair, the table is to my left as I sip my cold soda with my right hand. I am standing to my right a coffee table reading a book.
Question: What is closer to me between the table behind me and the computer tower in my 12 o'clock direction?
