# My New Office

> Photos of my new home office coming together: clearing out the old Costco desk, building a big corner desk and new chair, and the finished space.

As a programmer, I spend a lot of time in my office.  It's my sanctuary.  It's
where I do all of my work, where I learn a lot of new things, and where I have
a lot of fun.

Since I moved into my new apartment several months back, I've had a pretty
decent setup.  I had a 6-foot Costco desk (hey, they're only 50$), and used
that to hold all of my stuff.  It wasn't pretty--but it worked.  A few days ago
Sami and I were at Office Depot and I saw a desk I couldn't leave behind, so I
ordered it.  Yesterday it arrived, and I finally got it all built and setup
(with the help of Sami, and my sister).  It's a large corner desk and a new
cedar / leather chair.  Definitely a step up.

I decided to take pictures of the whole thing (my old desk, me cleaning out the
room, me building the new desk and chair, and the final result).  Let me know
what you think!  I love checking out other people's workplaces, and I hope you
enjoy mine!
