My New Desk!

My new desk came Monday! Thank goodness, it arrived undamaged. I had read some reviews saying the veneer was easily damaged, so before setting it up I rubbed on a layer of paste wax. I have never seen paste wax dry so fast, but I have also never used the "special dark" past wax, which turns out to be what B bought when I asked him to buy paste wax a few years ago. So maybe the wood was hella dry, or maybe the paste wax is weird? Either way, it dried really fast and it was hard to buff it off. But in the end it was done and looked nice.

While I was at S&B, B moved my old desk out of the room, vacuumed the area, and then set the new desk up. I love it! It's awesome! It is a little bit too tall, I might ask him to trim the legs about an inch. And I need to raise my monitors up somehow. Maybe lifts, maybe a shelf, maybe a wall-mount? Anyway, it needs some tweaking but I really love floor-seating. My chair is comfortable AF.

Last night I was in there doing some work and Serena came walking down the hall, she glanced in as she walked past and literally froze in shock. It was hilarious. So surprised! I called her in and she came in for pets. I am going to put a cat bed right next to my chair.

Here's the current setup:
