I just found out I am getting my first office with an actual window. Simple pleasure, I know. But a greatly appreciated simple pleasure in the drab-walled world of corporate cube farms. Too cool.

Congratulations on graduating to the outer row of the cube farm. Always nice to be able to see what's going on outside. One less neighbor is nice as well.

I can get some girls together and go and make some pretty curtains for your window and hang them up...Nani, Beth, Wendy, Helen and I can go and decorate your new office with pretty things...you know, to make it homey?

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

Helen! Awesome Idea...I was gonna get some fake fur to decorate around the monitor, but better to keep things coordinated right?

I was just reading that post again! I bet we all have stories like that...women, I mean...! But yes, I think anything sparkly might look lovely. I saw a ladybug shaped rug with sparkles that would look lovely towards the entrance of the office?

Hay thats awesome, office with a window! Ya know I have to admit, I felt the same when I graduated from cubicle to office w/a window. I was just soooo excited!
Now------ I keep the blinds shut everyday because of the glare of the sun on the computer screen, Its so gosh darn cold because the windows suck, and there is a constant breeze, and it doesnt open all the way so I can't throw myself out the 6 stories.
hey congrats tho.

Isn't that a great feeling?
I love my windows.... not floor to ceiling like the old building, but windows nonetheless......
