Thank you all for the lovely comments. I am doing very well, and it was indeed a wonderful coming home gift. Makes me smile every single morning.

... I think I may have to get some more Vandas

I wouldn't recommend coaxing the spike to grow upright. Coerulea naturally send out horizontal spikes. The best advice I can give you is that you give it even 360 degrees of light so that when the flowers develop and open they will give a great presentation from all sides.
