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's so nice to have Ron here again!
