I looked at this when I updated my monitor recently. I went with a 34 inch. This one was too wide for my desk unless I wanted to remove my speakers...which I didn't. The 34 inch would probably feel very small to you after using this one a while. What is that thing you have it setting on? It looks like it might be a veradesk?
I got some new shoe shine stuff for my new shoes:
Added a Herman Miller Aeron Remastered to my setup. My back is happy 
Good job! I spent a long time under my desk doing that too. I cheated by buying a cable management tray that runs the length of the desk, plus two power docks that attaches under the desktop.
Nice chair! I wanted to go with the Embody but like to work reclined. The Cosm was tempting but having no adjustments and not being able to test it first scared me off. I played it safe buying the Aeron at home to match the one in my downtown office. It’s a very comfortable chair.
The replacement mat. Let’s see how long it lasts.

I had the Embody briefly. Really liked it, but the armrests stood too far forward so they were hitting my desk. Had the Embody 3d adjustable armrest it would’ve been great.
I see you have the Posturefit SL (lumbar support part on the back) on your Aeron. How are you liking it? Do you feel it adds any value?
The other chair isn’t equipped with it so can only say it’s noticeable in a favorable way when working at home. However, I don’t really miss it while working in the office. Incidentally I don’t have back issues fortunately. If buying another chair I’d probably include it. This chair has leather arm rests which was probably a foolish decision.
It is an Ergotron, standing desk. Very sturdy...
I need a new one. Mine is looking rather 'yellow'

Bought some new toys for the cats. These replace the ones they've previously destroyed. They're really beating the **** out the new ones right now! So much fun watching them play.
Or just pluck a pheasant @SandboxGeneral?I’m sure the feathers would be a good cat toy without moving the fridge.
Or the red dot sight from your M16?

Just placed an Amazon order for the audio CD of this, the vinyl and the digital downloads (from elsewhere). Credit to @Matz for triggering my memory. To hear this after two decades of wondering whether I'd even heard such an album is amazing. For many years I thought I'd listened to an Engima album and my brain was remembering different melodies to their songs. I was content but sometimes I'd get the itch to rethink everything. I'm sure most of you think I'm completely and utterly insane at this point if you hadn't already.
That is an album (by Mike Oldfield, whose earlier music - Tubular Bells, Herbiest Ridge, Incantations, especially - I loved) I hadn't known; do you recommend it?

I wouldn't want to hurt the pheasant! The cats would of course, but that's different.Or just pluck a pheasant @SandboxGeneral?I’m sure the feathers would be a good cat toy without moving the fridge.

The red dot laser toys only work for a little while. Unless the cat can actually catch a physical object and beat it up, they get bored chasing it around and I feel like I'm teasing them cruelly because I know they'll never get satisfaction.
