Got a new office chair last week and put it together. Just leaned back on it this morning and heard something fall off and hit the ground. Wish me luck.

I don't know the brand. Told my employer I needed a new one, what features I wanted, and they had one shipped to me from Amazon. It's comfortable but now I'm worried.

Headed home from work for lunch soon but, returning to the office to finish up a few things for the afternoon.

Going back to the gym after work and will then keep binge watching Jack Ryan tonight. The newest season is kinda confusing, so I am reading some episode recaps now.

Wouldn’t it make more sense to hit balls on the way there, so things don’t go bad?

But I think we can all agree that the "weed whacking" (nudge nudge, wink wink) is in the right spot time-wise. But perhaps consider a different location than the patio.
