New Cities Skylines machine and autotrader browser. It’s a Dell G5, I am pretty happy so far. Looking forward to getting everything set up as I like.

Did you start the new job?

I did! Strange times to be starting a new job, let alone founding a new department in a company of 1500 people.

From home?

You guys not shutdown? Like Quebec and Ontario?

I’m off until Easter(thinking it’s gonna be longer)

I can work from home, but have worked most of this first week in the (empty) office.

We're not locked down

That watch looks super thin.

It is, Skagen’s design is quite overall. Which is good, because I have skinny arms and small wrists so bigger watches look weird.

Not the fanciest, but I drive a Fiesta and a Forte. My watch can't be worth more than my car

Chaucer on the shelf!

I took a class in early euro lit. But I never could get too deep into that era. Something about locker room bragging one-uppmanship as a main feature turned me off. Chaucer came after, and I’ll dive deeper into that timeframe when my kids have to read it for school. (Which sounds like a great way to read, when they have to.)

Pretty nice looking setup. Although that chair looks like my chunky self would break it. lol

How’s your Sportwagen been treating the wife? I’m looking for an excuse not to buy one now. My 15 Civic is paid off and it works fine, but I’m bored with it, and I have good resale value in it. Now is the time to buy with all these incentives. I’ve got my eye on a 4motion 1. 8t at a local dealer that just isn’t selling. And seeing how dealers can only work online in my state right now, I’m sure they’re probably desperate for sales.

She loves it, although did hit a pole in it last week... So far we're really happy with it!

That’s a really beefy rig, 8c/16t CPU,a 64gb of RAM and Rtx 2080....nice! Is that a 144 0p monitor or something higher res? What games are you planning to play?

Mostly cities skylines and sniper elite.  It's a 1080p monitor, a little older. An upgrade is on the list eventually

What kind of desk is that? I'm working from home for the foreseeable future.... and that looks like it will fit the bill.
