I got a great birthday present from my boss: A new cubicle in the office where I've been working for the last five years. It's larger, but more importantly it's in a different part of the office, affording me somewhat more privacy. It's no private room with a door, but about the best I can expect here in my current role. (I also recently got a big raise, so I'm in no hurry to try to move up in the hierarchy.)
Also, today was the first day of the year that it's been warm enough to take a lunchtime nap on my favorite bench in the courtyard. Yay sun.
