So, with being sick and all, I didn’t get a chance to write about something fun that I did on Saturday.  Ever since Stephen and I got our first apartment together, we’ve used whatever chairs were handy at the desks we’ve had… for example, kitchen chairs, and most recently, one of those white plastic resin outside chairs.  I don’t know why, it just never seemed like a real importance, getting an office chair.  But it has been something that we’ve said from time to time, oh we should get a nicer chair for in here.  Well on Saturday, we got our first “grown-up” office chair.  I was actually pretty excited about it, but then at the store is when I first realized how sick I was feeling, so I really didn’t get to enjoy it too much at first.  In fact, the smell and motion of it just made me feel worse.  But now that I am feeling much better, I have to say, I am loving our new chair.  We actually got a black leather, massage chair which is pretty cool, although I’ve not really used the massage feature too much yet.  The best part?  Well, we went to office max for it, because at work they gave us these office max cards, which entitle us to get personal items at the contract prices that we get at work.   So, as we were being rung up, I was hoping to get a few dollars off, expecting maybe 20 or so dollars… imagine my suprise then when it came up almost half off!  That was just so totally awesome (even the guy working there was shocked… he exclaimed… where do you work???  we don’t even get deals like that working here!).  I was pretty excited about that, and am loving this new card that they gave to us (really, only the administrative assistants got them, at this luncheon thing we went to for Office max, where we got to sample new products and stuff).

Anyway, here is a picture of our new chair.  Isn’t it cool?
