Office Space

i probably didn't post a picture of my new office yet. actually, i didn't say much the lat few months.. i think i might have burnt out a little. the official excuse is, however, that my computer is not a lot of fun to turn on when i go home at night. this is about to change though, since i've ordered a fancy new one, and it's supposed to arrive in a week or so (fingers crossed!)
anyway,
this is my new office:

i moved to it a few weeks ago. i like it a lot -- as you can see, there's a biiiiiig window, and lots of light, which i didn't have in my old office. at the desk at the left of the image sits my new office mate, a nice astronomer from the Czech Republic.
the only disadvantage is that now i'm not across the hall from ben.

this picture was taken a couple of weeks ago, now there are additional items: 1 - i have a HUGE monitor on my desk, that will be hooked up to my new laptop. 2 - i brought in a couple of plants: Phil JR, a descendant of Phil the Philodendron (i took a few cuttings from it, and trying to grow them) and a lemongrass (that was saved from Gray Scrooge, that for some unknown reason likes munching on lemongrass)

It reminds me that i read an article about a couple, who are both veterinatians. They both were surprized that their dog, which had cancer, ate their lemongrass in the garden, and got cured. They researched it, and found that the lemongrass has some healing abilities. Following their research people started drinking lemongrass tea to help cure cancer and other illnesses, and it helped.

looks like a good place to work in. May Phil JR and Lemongrass support you by growing and looking splendid :)
