I get an amazing amount of work done on my pink futon. It’s this place where I can go and to in super productive mode. Maybe it’s the pink-ness, maybe it’s the futon-ness? Who knows?
It’s like a breath of fresh air. A bucket of cold water poured over my head. An hour on my futon (did I mention it is pink?) and I get more done than I would in 3 hours in another location. It’s a vortex of pounding keys and full Google Docs pages.
If you don’t have a place as glorious as my pink futon, then keep moving around until you find one. Sit somewhere in your house/apartment that you’ve never really paid attention to before. Maybe your place will be outside of your home base. Go to a park or coffee shop.
Do you have a place like this? If so, where is it?

That’s Rondo on the futon. Notice how the color blends oh so well with the yellowish wall paper.

I so need a futon like that. Cute Boxer, too.
Hey Nate!
Looks cool! How much does a pink futon cost? :)
LOL!!!!!! I notice that I write best when I’m in a coffeeshop or Barnes & Noble or something–I don’t know what it is, but it’s true. Maybe just being surrounded by books and Bach or something. :)
Cheers to pink futons!
@ james – I warn you, they are extremely rare and expensive if you do find them… :-) Haha, and thanks! This is my first boxer and I will never have a different breed again, they are just so fun.
@ diggy – Be prepared to save up for a while if you want one of these bad boys! (haha). Really though, it was free from a family member, I just could not make myself turn it down.
@ ash – Books and Bach have been known to do it. No surprise there. Glad you have a place like that! Everyone should.
