Trapped in cubicle hell

This is a picture of me in my cubicle. I want to get out of this job hell so bad but I can't seem to find anything that suits me. There has been some "restructuring" lately and I am currently without a boss for the 6th time in 3 years. My current position is completely changing. This morning one of the managers here said that I could easily move up if I became more assertive. In the same breath she said "stay true to who you are!" I am not meant for the back-stabbing office culture and I need to get out before I suffocate or become like them! I've spent a good portion of my life hating myself and trying to be like everyone else. Over the last couple of years I've come to realize that I like who I am and I am not going to change...even if that means never climbing to the top of the corporate ladder. I am who I am. If karma indeed exists then there is someone here with a big window office who is going to get hers.

In the midst of all the chaos at work we're moving. Yesterday I called in sick & painted the living room of the house. I guess karma must exist because my little white lie came true. I ended up horribly sick last night & this morning. I'm blaming it on the orange chicken from Panda Express I had for dinner! It's a small price I had to pay because the living room looks adorable! Stephen didn't like the pink so it's a lovely shade of green instead. I'm glad he likes the way it looks because I put all my heart into it for him. I could have lived with the pink! =) I'm really excited to move! We're still a little nervous & hoping that our huge furniture will fit. I bought Sammy a new bed and a sparkly red rhinestone collar with her initial. She actually dosn't mind it! I hope the move dosn't stress her out too much. I think she'll be happier there with her bed by a sunny window. I'm just worried that someone will break in & catnap her. She's the only thing irreplaceable. Stephen thinks I should make another tag saying that she's elderly & on medication so nobody will want to steal her. Yesterday while Jenn & I were painting two people knocked on the door (one selling something and the other trying to rent the place) & one creepy dude even walked through the open kitchen door & came in to ask us if he could get work painting the outside of the house! I noticed that many of the neighbors are home during the day so atleast I have some comfort in that.

Anyway, it's off to an extended lunch since I don't officially have a boss until next week! =)
