New Office

November 16th, 2009

In lieu of the rantings of some of my coworkers on their new cubicle accommodations, I figured it was finally time to start blogging on some of my adventures in my new house. I still plan on writing up the details of my new prowess with all things electrical (along with the obligatory story of almost melting my face in the process), but for now I’ll stick to the topic at hand and show off where the majority of my home improvement work has gone thus far.

Office 1

The actual work area hasn’t changed much from my previous house. I still use dual monitors with synergy over to the laptop, complete with Red Hat posters to (attempt) to add a level of professionalism…

Office 2

… which doesn’t last too long once you start to look around. This desk houses my gaming rig. Having it in my office has revolutionized boring conference calls. Above it is a corkboard showcasing the artistic stylings of my 2 year old.

Office 3

Yes, those are the Left 4 Dead campaign posters. They look even more epic than I thought they would.

Not shown is the single greatest addition to my office: the ceiling fan. I even tempted fate by installing fan controls to the wall switch, which is somewhat irrelevant since it’s a rare occasion that I don’t want it set to the “hurricane force winds” setting.

    Your office looks great! I remember when my house was newly moved into and had that “new house” feel to it. I have my first vacation in 3 years coming up soon. Perhaps I can return my house back to that luster. (That is my OCD cleaning mother’s genes in me talking)

    Very nice. By comparison:

    my laptop usually lives at the front left hand corner, but it’s in a bag right now.

    During the release crunch it looked much the same, except in place of the chocolate milk bottle was a whisky bottle and a 2l Asahi can. :)
