- First day with a 30-second commute, instead of a 30-minute one.
- First day where getting to my desk didn't require a badge and several security checks.
- First day writing software for citizens instead of soldiers.
- First day writing free software full-time.
- First day working for Novell.
Plus...I've always wanted to take my dogs to work! ;-) Working from home is...interesting.
Oh, and another first: this is the first day where I've been allowed to take a picture of my work area! Behold!
Just imagine a bowl of cereal by my headphones, a dog under the desk, and OpenSUSE on my awesome company-provided 24" LCD, and you'll see what I see right now.
Cheers!

Welcome aboard, Sandy!
Hey, looks a lot like my setup. :)
Welcome, Sandy!
@Jeff, Gabriel: Thanks!
@cineto: Good catch! :-P I climb, and find that the little donut really helps with my grip strength. When I'm staring at a problem, waiting for something to compile, or reading docs (or if I'm exclusively mousing), I'll do little hand exercises with it. I really like the GripMaster Finger Trainer, though, and am thinking of buying one...
We miss you here, where you need to wear a badge.
Good luck at your new job.
Lance
Thanks Lance, I miss you guys, too! You and Rachel should come over for dinner/Wii soon.
Lucky dog! No, not your real dog under the table, you with your fancy 24" LCD. I'm jealous.
And welcome aboard!
