I got myself a new office chair today!
I'd been dealing with my landlord's cast-off office chair for the past six months or so. It was hard, short, uncomfortable, and I hated it -- but it was all I had. I stopped by Best Buy today and found this baby:
Init Mesh Back Executive Office Chair
The online price is $199.99. To be sure, that's what it rang up as. But the sticker said $129.99, and after a short discussion and presentation of said sticker, that's what I paid. Sure, it looks like a 25th-century torture device, but man, is it comfortable! I've been sitting in it on and off for the past six hours (homework, streaming video from network TV sites, various internet experiences) and my butt hasn't fallen asleep yet. I can even curl up in it, utilizing various comfy poses, with impunity. I am, as they say, a happy camper.
There's another one at the Willowbrook Best Buy on 1960 by 249, if anyone's interested. Hope they didn't change the sticker.
