Ah yes, now I remember why we bought this townhouse.

Sitting outside on the balcony, sufficiently shielded from sun that I can still see my laptop screen. Wireless connectivity and power for the laptop, portable speakers for the iPod (the random shuffle function seems to have settled on a decent mix of Marillion, Seether, and Blue October at the moment, good for working to), and being able to sit outside and breathe actual air despite having a mountain of laptop-necessary work to do.

There are certain elements of my life that, I will admit, do not suck in the slightest.
