Well, the afternoon didn't work out as planned. I got home and was so tired that I took a 2.5 hour nap. Smooth. Anyway, when I woke up, I discovered my lamp had been delivered. I have been wanting a lamp for my office and thought this one complimented my desk nicely. It looks great, but I'm a little annoyed because when I sit in the chair at the computer, my eye level is such that the bulbs show because the shade doesn't go down far enough. On the bright side, at least it improves my posture in an effort to avoid the brightness!

BTW - the desktop on my iMac is a picture D took while in Loreto Bay.
nice lamp! maybe one of those special light bulbs you use in dining room lights would help? They have have silvered bowls at the bottom of the bulb - they help if you have a dining fixture where the bulb is hanging vertically and you can see it when you sit down for a the table. Don't know how your bulbs are angled, so I'm not sure if they'd help.

Unfortunately, they lie horizontally, so I'm not sure how much that will help. However, it's an excellent idea to try other types of bulbs. There is a more tubular one that might work better and not dip below the shade so much. Thanks for the tip!
