For some reason I'm feeling very tired. I could use a nap right now...*YAWN*

I'm thinking it might be a caffeine crash...the coffee I had this morning was pretty damn strong! Guess that's what I get for having the low-grade stuff at the convenience store rather than at Happy Donut...

So I'm still in the market for a new chair for my desk. I saw some affordable director's chairs at World Market (which I still say are more comfortable and better on my back than the rolling chairs I've had due to the way I sit, but I digress) that I might look into. I'm also looking at some of the cheaper rolling chairs online. There's a cheaper version of the one I have at work here (it has a mesh backing and seat) that's in the running as well.

For a bit I was curious as to when I bought my current chair, which is starting to fall apart, as I couldn't remember how long I've had it. Part of the seat back is ripped (I think due to both the rivets in my jeans and the stuff I put in my back pockets like my keys, pad and pens), and the pneumatic lift is starting to go.

So lo and behold, I found a post on my writing blog from 11/19/06 as to when I bought it--so two and a half years have passed since I got that chair! Sounds about right...so I think the above things are good enough reasons to buy a new one! :p

And maybe at some later point I'll look into another wireless keyboard. Either that, or I'll just move the keyboard wire around so it comes up under the desk and in front of the desk rather than from behind, as I want to try my old habit of having the keyboard in my lap again. Having it at that level seems to work pretty well for me.

More on this later...in the meantime, any suggestions for new office furniture are welcome! :)

Joy!

That is, [livejournal.com profile] emmalyon's Ashford Joy Double-Treadle wheel just came in via UPS today! In a VERY LARGE BOX! And not only with a lot of packaging, but 24 ounces of wool, free!

Emm is quite happy now. :)

Which means I shall commence ordering the Beatles' remastered CD box sets once I finally find them online, without a hint of guilt. ;)

So Emm's playing with her new toy right now, but has a question--it seems the flyer keeps on unscrewing...is there a away to keep this from happening??
