A Day in the Office

I went into the office today. Thursdays are our in-office day, and I also picked up my new work laptop while I was there. I am upgrading from my trusty Dell, which I actually really liked, to a new Microsoft Surface. It is slick, fast, and feels very modern. So far, so good. Re-logging into every single website is a bit of a chore, but that is just part of the new-computer initiation ritual, I guess.

I also brought in a water bottle. Mariko was about to donate her King Arthur water bottle to Goodwill, but I rescued it and decided it will live at work instead. It is a great bottle, and I am happy it has a second life.

Thursdays also mean free lunch at work. Today was a “power bowl” day, where you build your own salad. I went heavy on the salmon, and it was pretty good. Not mind-blowing, but certainly nothing to complain about. Plus, I will always appreciate having a healthy option waiting for me.
